Ski Trip~ Keystone, Colorado

Just a week ago we went to Keystone,Colorado with the Langer family. It was so much fun! We loved the snow, it makes you feel like a kid again when you see it!!!
Amanda and I skied the first day...but after that with Amanda ending up in the medical clinic because of a head injury (ended up not being bad serious) and it really NOT being my favorite thing. We let the guys go ski (since they all like the black diamonds) and we just played in the snow with the little boys. So fun!
Here is Amanda and David at the "mountain house" getting a cup of cocoa before going back out on the slopes.

Danny right when we arrived didn't like his gloves or hat and was trying to take them off! I guess he's a Florida baby!


Chance and Danny in the sled. Amanda and I took them out just before nap-time. They loved it....for a while...

Danny did not like the fact that Chance couldn't sit up and kept falling over on him...ooops...we switched them after a while.

As you can see, the walk took a little longer than we imagined and went right into nap-time. Amanda got tired so I was pulling his sled...and holding Danny on a hip...I was exhausted by the time I got back to the house.

Later when the guys got home Daniel and James went sledding with us too! I loved watching them all play together and the guys were able to pull the boys faster!

Babysitting the Carmicheals

Sarah on the swing....such a cutie! She was very sweet the whole time...even though she got a little homesick!
The girls had fun out the volleyball court...they played in the sand for about 5 hours!

Hope and Kylie are best friends. It's fun to see them interact with one another...they act almost like sisters!

Feb. 14th-18th~ Fun Days!

We kept Brian and Linde's kids over Valentines weekend so that they could have a little alone time. It was so much fun! I got a taste of what it would be like with 5! At one point I remember turning around in my seat in the van and looking at our full mini-van....I turned to Daniel and said "uh-oh! Honey, it looks like we need a bigger car! We're growing too fast!" We both agreed it is better that God gives you only one (or two!) at a time;-)

Daniel and Danny playing with something...I don't know what it was but I know it kept both their attention! heehee;-)
Kylie with Danny...she is such a sweet girl and growing into quite a lovely young lady. She helped me so much with everyone!

Jake on the swings at the park. He waited about 10min for a ride of the "big" swing. Poor guy! He was so cute though!
