Today "Uncle Jason" (my brother) finished a video of our ski trip last week. Its pretty good. For his complete description of the trip check out their blog post linked in the family list, but for a quick wrap-up, I linked to his video from here. The introductory music was playing in the center square as we were leaving, and we thought it would make great background music for a video. Fortunately Jarom knew the song so Jason used it.

Bryson, Teething & a Popsicle

Bryson has been teething and today (Sunday) he woke up while his Mommy was gone and Daddy was still asleep, so Grandma Jane gave him a new treat to sooth his sore gums. We tried this a few months ago to a less-than-enthusiastic baby; it seems like our timing is better now as you can see from the pictures and video.

More Skiing with Jason & Brandon

On Friday February 27th, we went skiing again (of course), but it was even snowier than yesterday, and it was colder. I couldn't find my face mask, and eventually my face got numb with the cold and ice started building up my cheeks, but it didn't matter. There was a lots of powder snow, which is so fine and fluffy that my skis sunk in 6 to 12 inches and it was like gliding through cotton, but with the snow gently swishing around my legs. We didn't take many pictures because it was pretty dark and snowy, but we did have a great day.

Wrapping up another great day
