Cross-Country

Skiing has been an enormous hit with both girls this winter. Bridget and Moriah received x-c sets as a late birthday present, and they've been out on them almost every day since we got home from holiday travels. We're lucky to enjoy groomed trails right across town, orlooping through the yard if there's been fresh snow.


Bridget (top picture, purple pants) has taken off like a shot - she is definitely going for distance. Moriah (second picture, blue pants) really enjoys the hills and would be happy going up and down all afternoon. Both of them think falling down is extremely funny. I wish I felt that way - I've taken quite a few tumbles trying to help Moriah down some hills.

Happy New Year!

We rang in the new year with a visit to friends and playing outside in spite of the cold (Moriah top, Bridget below). For all the fun that we've had in 2008, we are looking forward to the adventures awaiting us this year. We wish as much fun for all of you!

The girls show off their holiday spirit and decorated Christmas tree below. Our camera rested at home for our holiday tour to see family, but rest assured that this was the Best Christmas Yet. They are so lucky to spend time with their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.
