Grace in small things, perfect weekend edition (February 19, 2017)
This weekend was one of the great ones. Some of the highlights:
- Zo with her first time on the big mountain (off the bunny hill) Saturday--I was going to take her by herself but she said she wanted her brother with her so I took both kids up on the gondola, and we had a blast skiing down together. Sis did so well! I am just amazed by how well these kids can ski already...
- And then, Luke had Daddy time this morning and I took Sis to the mountain again...and we rode the chairlift which is a first for me too and I was nervous about it but Sis and I did great, we had 5 chairlift rides with a donut to celebrate and she was racing me to the bottom of Preview all three times we did that run. I want to take Luke by himself on the chairlift first, but I have a plan formulating on how I can take the two of them on the lifts...so we are not tied to the gondola...
- I told Zo that on the chairlift she had to sit "back to back"--her back to the chair's back. "Mommy," she said. "Where is the chair's belly button?" I could not stop laughing. We decided the belly button is the middle of the safety bar, in case you were wondering...
- One of the best meals of my life at Laundry last night on date night with my husband, we had such a nice time...
- Hot springs with the kids today, oh my gosh it was crowded but still fun...
- Plus a great night's sleep last night (I've been sleeping pretty poorly since I stopped doing Whole 30) and I'm finally feeling on top of my workload and homemade chili for dinner and about to go read stories to my loves who are playing beautifully and giggling like crazy upstairs together while I type and John Oliver with my husband once the kids are down...
Life is so good right now. Loving this time...
XOXO
