The Long Dark Winter of the Soul

With apologies to Douglas Adams.

Winter is done.  Except for a dash down to LA to visit Leslie's parents during the Christmas break we have stayed at home and wished we were somewhere warm!  Even the trip to LA was cold; the day we went to Disneyland we almost froze.  Of course the kids wanted to go on Splash Mountain and we got soaked!

Starting in January we had ski lessons for the boys; what turned out to be 10 weeks of fun through the NAC at Park City Mountain Resort.  Both boys have taken to skiing like they have been doing it ever since they were born.  Part of me will be sad that it will be over next weekend; the other part of me is excited to finally be done with it as it has consumed almost every Saturday.

With the weather getting warmer I will be having to spend the weekends out in the yard; I will miss the snow!
