Lacrosse started for both boys this week! Josh's team practices in the 4H barn at the fairgrounds. I was kind of appalled, and took this team shot of where they are playing. Ghetto! |
Luke's team practices at the church, same place Josh did last year. I love this little U9 league, they're so cute with their tiny bodies and huge helmets. |
Here's our little bobble head. He got a red helmet, which is seriously so great for finding him on the field. |
We decided we needed cookies, and these two crazies were helping me add ingredients and do homework at the same time. We were rocking out, hence the dancing on the island. |
Friday morning the 1st graders, all 4 classes, got to find eggs in Emily's Garden. Luke's class wore these amazing hats, and they all had hand-woven paper baskets. So cute! |
Why won't he smile? |
Luke got a much needed haircut Friday. He looks like a pilot, we think. |
Saturday morning we dyed eggs. I had the genius idea to put our dyed water in our wine glasses. |
Its so much more fun to cross your eyes than to smile! |
First one finished! |
Josh did a half-and-half colored egg. His patience is impressive. |
We had one more egg, and Josh decided to experiment. He put in several colors, some dish soap, some vinegar, and let it sit for about an hour. The results: the egg turned a light purple. |
Our final products. |
Saturday afternoon was the neighborhood egg hunt. We have so many kids in our neighborhood, it's amazing! |
Josh decided that his Easter basket didn't hold enough eggs, so he brought a gallon ziplock. He found this haul in about 2 minutes! |
Luke found his fair share quickly too. |
And then they opened the eggs to find the bounties. Lots of goodies! |
The Easter Bunny visited our house overnight, and when the kids got up to go skiing Sunday morning they had a little pitstop of finding eggs. at 5:30 AM. These kids are hard core. |
The chairlift up to our sunrise service only ran from 6:30-6:45 Sunday morning, so here we are waiting for our turn. |
This is where we decided to park our skis before walking the 10' to the service. I was shocked at how many people were there, and how many kids! Young kids too! |
Sunrise Easter service was really special. |
After the sermon we hustled down to the breakfast buffet before the sun was even over the mountains. |
This is the sunrise equivalent of alpenglow...so pretty. |
I love a good chairlift shadow! I love the chairlift conversations, it's seriously half the reason I learned to ski. |
Because honestly, I'm happy at the lodge. Luke and I took a break at the Alpine Lodge in the afternoon. I had a PBR and some sunshine. |
Luke had an M&M rice krispie treat as big as his face. |
The boys took off their coats at that little break, and we did two more runs. |
They're so cute. It was a very fun day on the hill. |
