Wow! It's been some time that I have posted something. Well let's see why Rhiannon has neglected this job. WE'VE BEEN BUSY!!!!!! I even have to look at my calendar to see what exactly that kept us so busy. Since Jersey has been off track we have been doing or trying to do one fun activity a week.
We spent some time at my sister in laws house. She just moved so I was trying to help her move furniture and maybe hang some pictures because she is feeling a little overwhelmed. She just bought a beautiful piano so I had to test it out. Someday, I would like a piano. While we were working on the decorating the kids were working a "show" My four older nieces love to dress up, sing and dance for everyone. So the rest of us were the audience. I have to give them so props for being very creative.
Last Friday Mike's summer passes at Snowbird were going to expire and because his mom was staying up at a condo this last week she took my kids up to ride the alpine slide, jump in the bounce houses and trampolines. Mike and his dad were having a race down the alpine slide and Phoenix was with Mike and Jersey was with Carl. Well as you can imagine to competitive men racing with two little kids someone has got to crash right? Carl did. He received most of the battle wounds Jersey just got a scrap on her arm.

We ended last week hanging out at Snowbird. I love it up there. The weather was perfect not to hot and not to cold. We took a tram ride to the top on the resort and took a hike down to what is called the Peruvian tunnel. It connects the two sides of the mountain. We walked through the tunnel and Phoenix kept saying that
we were inside a dinosaur. We got to ride the chair lift down the mountain. I would have to say it was a little freaky just looking down. Jersey and Phoenix were nervous. At one point the chair lift stopped. I hear Jersey gasp. I don't think she took a breath until the chair lift started up again. After hanging out at October fest and seeing all the booths we headed for the pool. The "warm" pool as Jersey calls it wasn't that warm but she was doing really well on her "big arms" and swimming the length of the pool. I shed a tear of joy for her great desire for swimming. We also had to take in some hot tub time as well. I thoroughly enjoyed that.



Apparently a little to much because by six o'clock I was a lobster. The first sunburn of the season. Yeah for me since the "season" is over. It still didn't feel nice. When Mike got off work we headed down the mountain for home. Mike has been needing some new shoes so we went to the mall but we didn't see anything he liked. We decided to give up and try another day since I was now feeling the full wrath of my sunburn. But we stopped into Sport Chalet and there it was the mother of all sales. You know the sales, the sale that everything is marked down plus an additional amount taken off. I live for those sales. Mike found some great shoes for the price he wanted to pay. He also found some shorts that were just his size. I think I saw a smile on his face and he was shopping. We had been looking for a new ski coat for Jersey. I found a great deal on one. $15 for a nice coat and she can wear for a really long time. Phoenix was feeling a little sad because he didn't get anything.
