Bluebird

It was a fantastic weekend around here. Sunny for a few hours on Saturday after the fog burned off. Then clouds rolled in again. We were able to go to a tree farm and find a Christmas tree. A very nice experience when it is not raining.



Sunday morning we got up EARLY and went skiing. It was a beautiful day. The sun was shinning all day long. It was our first day out of the season and it went great. Odin decided he was not quite ready to use his new poles. John decided that he needs a little more boot fitting done.  I think I will be happy when we take the RV (The Grand Ole Apres) and can have a hot lunch in a quiet space.
It feels strange to be waiting at the bus stop in December not wearing a hat or mittens. It also feels strange that there is no snow, unless we gain a lot of elevation. But so far it is also very nice not having to wear every coat I own just to walk to the bus stop.

  1. your bus stop comments are so timely. I was just astounded at how cold it was waiting for the bus 2 days ago and am already dreading February. Adam and I will either have to bundle up every day, drive 2 blocks and wait in the car, or get super good at timing it just right so there won't be much waiting.
    Love the neck warmer on Odin! We just discovered those 2 weeks ago and have been using them every day. Both kids love them.
    See you in 2 weeks!!
