Kitty's Birthday

 Happy birthday to Kit the Mit Kit, Kit Cat! She holds a very special place in all of our hearts. She couldn't eat the whole cupcake herself. Thank goodness Ava was there to help.

Spring Break at the Horschmans

For spring break, we made the trip to spend some quality time with our west side besties. While we were there, we celebrated Cole's birthday and Easter.

Ski Pic Dump

 We have had some beautiful blue bird days of skiing this year! We loved skiing with Auntie Lala, Bridget, the Thompsons, and the Hibbards this year!

Stuffie Love

 Lately Ava has been making stuffy forts to sleep in and it cracks us up.

Christmas Break Ski Trip

 Since Nick and Molly are living in Park City this winter, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit them. We decided to drive to avoid the risk of Covid on airplanes. On our way, we spent a night at Bogus Basin Mountain in Idaho. We stayed in a condo on top of the mountain and had a blast. The snow was a bit slushy, but the views were incredible, I can no longer keep up with Aiden, and Ava did the best skiing of her life!





From there, we headed to Park City. Nick and Molly surprised us with matching shirts when we showed up. Although there wasn't much snow, we had so much fun skiing with them and exploring the city. We even spent Christmas day skiing and Elfy managed to find us too!










Gorgeous sunrise on our way home!

First Ski of the Season

We are so happy to be able to ski, even though there are still so many Covid restrictions. We decided not to use the lodge this year so we will be tailgating for lunch. A gorgeous blue bird day made that pretty easy for us today. It was so warm and beautiful!

Thanksgiving

 We kept Thanksgiving small this year - just us and Grammie and Grandpa. It was an excellent evening complete with our first deep fried turkey and of course National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation afterward.

2020 Election

 The 2020 presidential election has been like no other. Donald Trump and his supporters divided Americans on so many issues, most especially Covid. To say we are relieved to have him out of office is an understatement. All politics aside, tonight was a beautiful moment in our nation's history watching the first ever female and woman of color become the vice president. I am so grateful that my kids could witness this. 





Carheart Ad

 Today we hiked around Auntie Angela's property and stopped at her old barn for some pictures. Ava nailed her head pretty hard before our family picture, but she still managed a smile for the camera.

Halloween

 Halloween 2020 was our favorite ever! On friday we did a scavenger hunt at Commellini's with Doc and Marty McFly. Then on Halloween, dad started out the morning with ghost pancakes. Then,
the Warrens joined us for Minute to Win It games, a Corona Virus cell piñata, a spooky, lights-off scavenger hunt complete with jump scares, and a viewing of Beetlejuice. The kids asked if we could do it again next year!
