Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to a few of my favorite mom's, in no particular order. There are some mom's missing, I'll get you next year! Hope every one has a fantastic day.

Snow Balls and More

Well, I loaded up the pictures wrong and blogger doesn't want me to change it. So here I go with random thoughts. This is Kevin on the way down the mountain. Do you think he's worn out?Love, love, love this picture. The view is awesome. Look at those two just having fun and being goofy with each other. I love it when friends get together and just enjoy each moment.
In side the Mt. Charleston Lodge. Little did we know what a shocker our bill would be! A warning to all who think they'll just grab a bite up there, pack a lunch and then thank us! You've just saved yourself a bundle.

Love the views.

Kevin believing it is only a true snow day if you are cold through and through!

Taking aim!!

Throwing at the person taking pictures. Looking for the best snow for those snowballs.

I think Kevin is telling Lisette were to hit him at!!!!!

The day was so much fun. Did I mention that before?

Thanks guys, it wouldn't have been as much fun without you.

Kevin Flying High

Here is our happy young man right before he "tried" the ramp I don't believe Kevin went over the ramp on purpose. The ramp was shown to our sledders on their very first time on the hill. They were told they probably wouldn't want to go over it, and they did not go over all afternoon.
Here Kevin is starting down the hill. He's a little sideways and bout this time I hear Lisette yell, he's going toward the ramp! My reply? OK I'll get the photo! Some how I don't think that is what she expected me to do.
Here he is just before the ramp. See how he is kinda leaning back with the rope in his hands? Kind of like he's on a horse and wanting it to stop. Yeah, this didn't quite work for the sled!

Next thing I know Kevin is flying through the air (not with the greatest of ease). He was flung from the sled, landed on his stomach, his head sort of bounced, he slid through the compacted snow, was a little slow in getting up, even slower in straightening up (I kept taking pictures though).

This is what it looked like when he faced me. After some rinsing out of the mouth (split the inside of his lip) and some wiping down of the scratches on his nose, Kevin, Catherine and Lisette headed back up the hill for one more ride down.

Sorry pic's are out of order and blogger won't let me fix it today. See the little red spot on the tip of his nose? He also has a small scratch going up the front of it.

Here he is with Lisette getting ready to come down again.

Here they are whooping and hollering and having a blast. Takes more than a little fling through the air to keep our Flying High Kevin down!!!

Stay tuned. Tomorrow will be the snow ball fights

Snow Day

This afternoon was so much fun. Kevin and I went with Lisette and Catherine sledding on Mt. Charleston! It was great snow pack for sleds, the sky blue and the sun beating down on us. There was a hill that needed climbing and sledding and the kids were happy to oblige.
Kevin coming down and you could hear him laughing all the way.
Kicking up some snow.

Next down was Catherine, she giggled and squealed all the way down. It is so much fun watching both of them delight with the simple things in life.


What's a little sledding without making a snow angel.

Tomorrow you will get to see some more of our day. It will be complete with photo's of Kevin trying to be the Shawn White of sleds.
