Spring skiing and the sillies






Went for our spring ski on Saturday.  Perhaps our last one of the season.  Kids did GREAT despite a rocky start.  Dylan did his first accidental rail and was having fun hopping on his skis as he went down the hill.  This hopping led him to the mini jump run and he had fun going over those.  Sophia was a little speed racer and I could barely keep up with her as she sped down the blues squares!

Another fun weekend activity was the big hamster event.  Sophia and Dylan got their first hamsters today!  Not sure if Dylan really wanted one - he was very hesitant and will not pick his up yet.  We decided to get him one in case he wants one in a few months after getting used to Sophia's.  They are sharing a cage and you can only have them share if you get them at the same time (otherwise they don't get used to each other and will scrap).  They are dwarf hamsters and are VERY tiny - more like mice.  Maybe if they are really into them we can find them some teddy bear hamsters like I had growing up...  Ahhh, Timmy, Cynthia and Nausicaa...  Sophia named hers Fuzzy Bear and Dylan went with Jack.

Looking forward to Ainley and her crew's visit at the end of the week.  Has been  a while.  Should have good weather for them :)
