February break

We had a full and fun February break week as a family.  We spent the first weekend in Killington with my parents and Mike's family, for Rosalie's birthday tradition.  It was the one absolutely frigid weekend of the whole winter, which was a bummer.  But, the oldest 3 still skiied for a couple of hours in the -15 windchill on Saturday!  And of course, we still did all the rest of the happy Killington things.  One of my favorites parts of the weekend was Rosalie's jokes, delivered with such great personality.  (especially the banana/orange knock knock joke told backwards, so that the punchline was "banana you glad I didn't say orange?" lol)







We got back from Killington around the same time the Orsatti's arrived, so we got to spent the evening with Brian & Rebeckah and the next morning with sweet Nico.  



Then, a day to pack and finish up work, and on Wednesday we drove to PA (the kids were awesome in the car, and we made it in 6h15m with only 1 10 minute stop!).  We had a few days to hang out with Granny and visit friends, and I got to attend Alasdair's marriage seminar at New Life.  He is such a good speaker!  It was really fun to be there for one of his events.  

 



first soft pretzels; one of the guys working brought over some dough so the girls could try making their own!







dinner with Uncle Will 

playdate with Luci & Joy Leander (we missed meeting AJ again! Boo.)

We drove home on Sunday and hit the grown running with a full week (the early bird deadline on our Walking Together Conference and the flurry of work around that, preparing for a board meeting, meetings every night, etc.  But, we made it to this weekend and were very glad to crash and catch up a little.
