Binge Skiing

Well, after a few missed seasons, it was my turn! Yeah!! The Boyz off to CO to visit Gma Lin and Gpa Rob. Nothing left to do, except ski. 

Hiking up for just one more

J-man and Jow cresting the ridge

Looking back

Rolf, with the Tetons in the distance

Encouraging words from the slave-driver personal coach skiier chick. Don't bother watching, just listen...

Sunset in the Tetons

View from the yurt

Hmmm, what to do, what to do....

Kitchen Sink Award: to the J-man, who shows how to strap on your kitchen sink for the ski out.

Alexi first powder day

Alexi had his first ski school powder day.  Note the snow build up on his face scarf.  Training him young to be an Alta-holic.

Chillin with the new toys after a sick sunny day at alta

day number 2.  This is now becoming ritual.  Party hard on ski mountain, sleep all the way back home.

XMas 2010

Let the Xmas festivities begin!! What could be better than a three year olds' rendition of Rudolph? Well, honestly, not a whole lot.

Aside: Alexi was sort-of able to follow the Rudolph movie this year, but kept getting caught up on why the abdominal snow monster lost his teeth? Subsequently, he is not so keen on those people called 'dentists'....have to admit, I am right there with him, makes my mouth water just thinking about it....

On to the main man, Santa...

And then the day we had all been waiting for, or at least Alexi had been waiting for...true joy, ripping paper, overstimulation, jubilee, celebration and of course...Lightin' McQueen!! 

And Spidy too..

Matching jammies!! Alexi loves to scream, Mommie, wear your T-pants so you can be just like ME. No, I'm not sure what T-pants are either, but you get the idea....

And a game boy...how do you work this thing??

It was enough to wear out even a Pug. Pictured below, Theo hiding out with Charlie in the quiet basement...

Not pictured here (to protect the innocent) was the favorite present of the day... the whoopie cushion... enjoyed by adult and child alike. So much so, it was "blown" out w/in a few days...

Yes. One tired cowboy.

Wiped out from first ski lesson

Alexi ripper from 9 am to 2 pm. So tired on last run, he stopped once
on the hill, leanned forward, and passed out while standing.

Discover gateway photo shoot

 My boy made the cover!

Little bug, or should I say big bug as he is not so little any more (the guy is about one meter tall), did a photo shoot for the Discovery Center  Children's Museum at the Gateway mall.  He was so cute he made the cover of a membership drive brochure. 

Is this the beginning of an acting career?

High fashion modeling?

or just politics? 

Who knows!

Powerful stuff

There it is.

What will I find?
