New Skis!

Posted by: Becca and Kyle
Presidents' Day was pretty awesome (in fact, it was a great week, as you will soon see!). In the morning, I hung out with Meera. In the afternoon, I hung out with Mom. She lets me drink beer (kombucha).

She also let me (was busy in the kitchen and didn't notice) convert the living room into an airplane for me and my friends.

Mom did a good job momming this week. I was impressed. She made me a batman costume out of a garbage bag

and helped me do some serious cooking.

We all went to the library. It may be the greatest place on earth. Books and

COSTUMES!

It only gets better. I got some nordic skis this week too.

Dad and I had a little snack before taking them out on their inaugural run.

After, we had a little coffee. Dad, I can handle two shots of espresso. No problem.

It gets even better. Crazy, I know. But, Nana came this week too. She was pretty excited to have her bags carried by a firefighting, dinosaur-giraffe.

Tired?! Ha. No way, Nana. Time for ninja training. Walk on these boards and don't fall off..

Popcorn

Torin sent me a postcard from Australia! It was a puzzle. I needed my superpowers to put it together and read the message.

We are getting snow. That means I have a lot of work to do:

Classic skiing in lots and lots of snow on Saturday. I sang Wonky Donkey over and over again the whole time.
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1024f
Finally, I am free!
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10250
Wanna race, Dad?
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10253
You can't catch me.

After all that skiing, I worked up a hunger. I made applesauce
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10260
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1025f
and truffle salt popcorn!
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10264
Dad made a wheat sourdough. I ate it all.

Some sun for cross country skiing on Sunday, but the blizzard on the mountain made for a short 'pine ski.

Boxer short yoga

Posted by: Becca and Kyle
This is an action shot. Mom is a terrible photographer. She just can't capture my speed.

I keep supple after a hard day of skiing and construct work with some boxer short yoga.

I've been doing a lot of pine skiing lately. I like to keep things spicy, so today I did some nordie skiing. I'm fast and the older ladies on the trails LOVE me.

Ma. Enough with the pictures. LET ME EAT MY COOKIE.
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10236
We had a yummy dinner of slow roasted pork (Dad cooked it for 10.5 hours!) and squash, brussel sprout, and apple salad (the pics never do the meals justice)
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10241
but, I didn't eat any because I'm not feeling so hot.
