Aidan loves to crash. He managed to land face down on this one!
Bella skiing right along down the mountain.

Owen on the train heading up to the bunny hill. How cute is he?!

In the pool after a long day of skiing


The pool was like a huge hot tub. Look how steamy it is!



We got fresh snow overnight and it was just beautiful!




Aidan tried out snowboarding for the first time up at Whistler
Bella LOVED ski school! She had a great experience the first day with a private lesson and two instructors. She progressed in her ability quite well and really loves hitting the slopes!

Owen went to ski school too! He learned how to make a pizza with his ski's and go down the bunny hill!


Aidan tried his snowboarding skills on the bunny hill after the lifts had closed for the evening. Dad was nice enough to pull him up the hill with a rope so he wouldn't have to take the snowboard off every time.

The kids did WAY better than we could have expected on our 6 hour drive to Whistler. Owen spent a fair amount of time in the car under his blanket. I guess he could see his leapster better that way!
Owen and mommy playing moon sand.

The Mcdonald's french fry maker. You use bread in this machine and it cranks out french fries...who knew?!


Aidan overjoyed after his concert




Aidan off to his first solo clarinet recital
Bella was invited to a fancy dinner party. Doesn't she look fancy?!

Mommy did her hair


Love those dimples!



Bella won the second game of bowling.




Aidan won the first game and mom totally lost!

This is the only time Owen let Mike help him with the ball. After that, he had his own fancy way of pushing it down the alley that worked quite well.

She got some!


Bowling shoes!
