Snow activities with friends!

We've been taking advantage of the holiday weekend by packing as many activities into a few days as possible. And since we live in a popular vacation destination, we've had quite a few friends come into town for New Year's as well. Lots of fun activities!

On Saturday, we went into Sunriver with the Goodys and took Tristan ice skating for the first time. Talia and I spent most of the time huddled up in the fire room, but had fun cheering on the ice skaters!


Then yesterday, we all went to Black Butte to visit Trac, Dave, Lawrence, Britt & Sam at their cabin. Me and the kiddos stayed behind as Brian went skiing with Dave and Sam. We took a snow walk and then tried to ski down the mini-hills in the neighborhoods. Tristan wasn't quite sure about it, but Trac and Lawrence managed to do some mini-sledding!



And today, we met the Zervises (who are staying in Sunriver) at a sledding hill. Little did we realize, this hill was not for the beginner sledder. I'm surprised we didn't see more people get hurt! Brian and Tristan were only daring enough to go up a quarter of the hill. It was steep and fast! I stayed and chatted at the bottom with Falkie as we watched the a lot of near-crashes and people narrowly missing a gigantic collision. So glad for the decision I made!

Love this pic of Falkie and I. Definitely mommy fashion at its finest. I'm wearing as many layers as possible to keep Talia warm in the Ergo while Falkie is wearing her 3 year old daughter's hat. Classic :)
