More October "Winter" Pics

I know Staci thinks we are all insane with our excitement about Winter weather, but we have found that having an amazingly fun winter hobby makes us love any weather. Last winter seemed too short, and I'm sure Staci wasn't feeling that way. So with Arapaho Basin open for ski season "hors d' oeuvres", a nice snowy fall day makes us happy. In fact I took a half-day off last Thursday just for a little quality father & son time. For those of you who have to commute long distances to snowboard or ski, we're here for you!

The following were taken last Thursday AM after it had snowed all day Wednesday. It is Saturday today and the last of the snow melted from the front yard and roof today.


This is what the Family Room looks like the night before we go skiing. We put the stuff downstairs so we don't make too much noise loading the car. We usually like to leave about 7am.

Pretty front yard at dawn

View of the front of the house. Notice the sweet ski racks that are an addition to our 2010 winter arsenal.

Seth has accumulated a very nice snowboarding wardrobe. He was wearing red tennis to top off the ensemble.

Fun pictures of the snow. It's always fun to see you guys so excited about a day out on the slopes (though your swishy pants wake us up even if your loading the car doesn't). By the way, the yard looks fine even with Bryson's footprints in it.
