Many Blessings: Best Snowday Ever!

Thanks to a windy, wintry mess- we had Thursday and Friday off from school. I decided to work Thursday while it continued to snow, but Friday blessed us with the perfect opportunity for a day of adventure after the winds died down!

After some morning lounging and packing up we headed out to enjoy our winter weather.

Morgan is really picking up skiing this year and will follow along right in our tracks. She is starting to decide it is much more fun to go fast down the hill than to follow me as I try to get her to slow down and cut back and forth across the run! Look out for this little daredevil!

Cade mastered this rail with big smiles and we convinced him by the end of the day to try out Gunbarrel and Headwall- the 2 black diamond runs on the hill (nothing compared to his youngest skiing experiences in Idaho, but not bad for Iowa skiing). He skiied both with no trouble and decided his goal was to ski top to bottom, straight down without stopping. One more trait he picks up from his father!

Thanks to Cade's selection after his daring black diamond runs- we finished off the trip with a tasty treat at our favorite Mexican restaurant with great food...
