Ski Weekend!

We spent last weekend in White Pass,Washington where the famous ski racing siblings Phil and Steve Mahre learned to ski. It was a big hit. The girls liked the cool snow castle at the mountain's base:



Theo got suited up for some killer turns:


Elsie's boots were a little big on her:


Here's what Theo looked like a little over a year ago in Vermont, her first time on skis. We think her feet were probably pointing straight down here, but she didn't seem to mind:


Here's Theo hanging with her buddy Siggy, who lives up the street from us:


Below, see Elsie in her yellow jacket, practicing her hands on knees descent style. She learned to turn a little too:


Elsie and Daddy went up the chairlift and had a nice ski down from the top:


Elsie's favorite part was stopping at the mid-mountain yurt for a snack:


Theo also descended from the top, but she rode on Daddy's back:


Here we are at the bottom. Theo is asleep.


Theo napped for hours in the lodge after her big day:


And now, the moment you've all been waiting for. Our new car, dubbed "The Black Lovewagon" by uncle Pete. It seats 7! Come visit us and we'll go four wheelin'!
