Blown out afternoon...

But the kite surfers were loving the afternoon onshores at Wadell Creek!

Perfect timing

Fog is just receding when I get ready to surf...

Spring day

It was 70 degrees when Amy and I got down from the mountain today. The
girls took advantage of the warn weather.

Reckless?

Sabrina has demonstrated a fearless pursuit of excitement in her sport
outings...skiing, swinging, whatever.

Spring all the way around

Amy's spring break is this week so we had a meeting on the slopes
while she dealt with a couple of fires remotely...a great day!

Ski Sundays

Boy are we enjoying the weekly ski Sundays. Another beautiful day today. Jilli is carving and linking quick turns, fully in control and capable of nearly anything on the mountain. Sabrina is the dare devil, it's clearly in her blood...she has no fear, skis faster than most adults and turns are simply an option to prevent collision (took her first big digger today at mach and it didn't slow her down a bit). We are amazed at their athleticism..and their competitiveness and desire to learn is truly inspiring.
It was another happy day on the slopes as a family...

And the snow has been exceptional...thank you El Nino/Southern Oscillation!
 
Looking forward to next week!

Winter bike ride to the park!

The Crew

Our winter Sunday tradition is skiing with the girls at Squaw...last
week we caught up with the Penwardens and the Kates on a beautiful
sunny day!
The girls are both skiing independently on all the green and blue runs!

Open house at school

I was impressed with Sabrina's drilling and sawing skills at MVM open
house.
Jillian showed me her golden beads work (math for those of you not
familiar with Montessori education). Amy and I each got 30 minutes
with each of the girls and we always enjoy their demonstrations of
what they're learning.
