Mountains

We had fun in the mountains last weekend with our friends ...
Griffin and Cohen loved spending time together
Grace sizing up the sledding hill
It was big and fast!
We took the kids on the gondola in Breckenridge ... they loved it!
Griffin especially loved it, as he's getting ready to try skiing next weekend so was quite interested!

We took a horse-drawn sleigh ride up peak 9 in Breckenridge ... it was neat to see the Clydesdales and the beautiful views!
On the sleigh
So pretty!
The horses worked hard and even ran pretty fast!

Valentine's Day Party

We had fun celebrating Valentine's Day with friends last weekend:
The kids made Valentine cookies
Griffin took my request for him to smile at the camera quite literally : )

And the group pictures:
Griffin, Grace, Isaac, Eli, Cohen
Then Levi joined and was not too happy about it
Griffin comforted him ... Levi will soon learn that being part of this group means lots of group pictures!
The Cornells have a fun mat that the kids had a blast jumping and playing on!

Grace is learning how to use a spoon - it's a fun (and messy!) process!

A snowy weekend

On Thursday we were playing at the park without jackets with 50 degree weather - and then we woke up to over 12 inches of snow on Friday! Most people didn't have to go into work, so it was a fun snow day at home since Griffin's school was canceled and EDCD was cancelled too.
Griffin loves to help shovel snow!

The best part about most people not working on Friday was that our friend, Sam, who is a great cook, stayed home and cooked a great meal, which we were able to join him for! The kids, as always, had fun!
Sledding!
Griffin loves sledding!
As does Grace - she gets the biggest smile on her face!
We made a snowman - Griffin was excited to help with the finishing touches!
Griffin and Cohen with their snowman
Love the cheesy smiles!
The snow is bright! The boys requested sunglasses ... and looked pretty cute in them!
