Waving Bye

You can't see it well, but Ryan's arm is out the window waving "bye" to the kids. He waves until he rounds the corner and they can't see him anymore. Dallin and Ella have had the discussion whether or not Dad waves bye all the way till he gets to work, it was undecided.

Tyge's Meatball

The bottom line is, Landon LOVES food. Even if it is not his. Especially if it is not his.

Spring Skiing

We took Dallin and Ella to Alta for "Ski Free after 3" a couple times this week. Ryan took them on his own on Saturday, and I went with them this week. They are both great skiiers for having gone only a handful of times. This was only Ella's second time at a resort - she snowmobile skiid last year.

Snowplowing down a hill is really a pretty good workout! I was tired after a couple hours. Taking kids reminds me of skiing when I was young - when you fall, everything is going in the wrong direction, and the tow rope is a joke!

I dropped my poles on the lift and Ella said, "Well, there go your sticks."

So all they could do was to sit, sit, sit, sit!

This picture reminds me of The Cat in the Hat. I just didn't get my camera out when they were actually sitting in the chairs. Dallin and Ella anxiously watched out the window for a half hour for Grandma Bott to come pick them up to take them to the theater.

Happy Birthday Ryan!

What 33 year old doesn't want to go to Boondocks and play Nascar for his birthday?! Actually it was really fun, Ryan snowmobiled in the morning, and then we went to dinner and Boondocks. The kids loved it.

Utah Lake

We went out to the Lake with Ohrans and Harrison's to see how the ice had been pushed up into ice mountains. It was very cool and the ice mountains were made up of thousands of crystals. All the boys and Ella loved to throw rocks in the lake.

Snowman

We had put off making a snowman all winter, and the last few times it snowed, the powder wouldn't pack. So at long last, the first weekend in March we made our snowman.
