First Ski Trip

Since Ken seems to have all the fun, I got to take Kailyn, Jordan, Caden and Chase on their first ski trip. It was so much fun! It was the last ski weekend of the season and the kids were really sad we wouldn't be able to go again until next year. I put all of them in ski lessons for the day. It was great because it was basically private lessons. Kailyn, Jordan, and Caden were together and Chase was the only one in his class.

Here are pictures of Kailyn, Jordan and Caden.






Here is one of Chase.


As part of the the ski package (lessons, ski rentals, etc) the kids got a free lunch. Jordan was amazed by the enormous cookie.


I just happened to be there when the kids were getting off of the ski lift for the first time. It was so funny. Kailyn got off and held onto the ski lift, fell down and then just sat there. Apparantly, their instructor was not clear about making sure to get out of the way.

Yep, here she is just laying there begging to be run skied over.

Caden trying to swerve to get around Kailyn who is laying there.


Right when I got home Ken had to leave for a meeting. My friend Megan and I (She has three kids that are really good friends with 3 of mine) stuffed some eggs and hid them for the kids in the park near our house. Then when it was dark enough we let the kids go out and go Easter egg hunting with their flash lights. The kids had tons of fun. Such a fun idea Megan. (and I forgot to take any pictures)


Earlier in the day while we were gone, Ken took Ava and Hannah to the neighborhood Easter egg hunt.






Ken also took them to a free event at a local nursery. As you can see Hannah loved the Easter Bunny.

This bunny was much better.




They also got to ride the penny horse at the grocery store.

Getting off the lift was always the hardest part for me, too.

I love that hunt eggs in the dark idea!
