Hitting The Not-So-Sloping Slopes!

We are back from a few days in Whistler, where the kids got to try out their new skis! One day at Ski School turned out to be over $300 a day for two kids, so they were stuck with some second-rate instruction from Mom and Dad.
Liam had surprisingly good balance and managed a few 10 second glides down hills without holding onto us...and he didn't (always) fall! Sarah was a little more like a sack of potatoes on skis, but for a first try she did great! They are both eager to get back to the slopes, so I guess we'll count this a success. Take that, Ski School!

Hanging Out


Yes, I know it's weird. But he was making an elf trap. It all makes sense now, right?

Jail Time

Liam is really into everything to do with Police: tickets, jails, fingerprinting. His favorite are his Police Legos...here he built a jail complete with parking garage for the police vehicles - and a helicopter pad to boot!


That's a Superhero Pyjama Cape he's wearing. Great for taking a fly around the living room when you need a break from all the building.

Advent

When you're a little kid, nothing tastes better than cheap chocolate first thing in the morning! (Come to think of it, I still kind of like it, too!)

The Face of an Angel...


....you simply wouldn't believe the wrath this girl is capable of.
But that's for another day....
