snow sculpture championships 2013

This year we checked out the snow sculptures the day before judging, which was interesting.  Since it was the last 20 some hours before they had to be done, the teams work around the clock to finish.  One team finished too soon and their sculpture didn't make it to judging.  It's neat to watch the progress.  This year happened to be one of the warmest that I can remember.  It is usually super cold the week of the snow sculpture championships.  It's much nicer to view with warmer weather.

W was a trooper and posed in front of each and every sculpture.

Z enjoyed crackers while looking at the snow sculptures.

W checking out the snow sculpture made for kids to play on and in.

They also have ice sculptures of all the corporate sponsors.

bombers, round four

W is getting a powder day!

mardi gras

We went to the Mardi Gras parade this year. It wasn't too exciting. I believe it was the shortest parade in Breckenridge this year. The boys had fun. W got more beads and Zeph got to see a few trucks (he's really into trucks right now).

skiing

W skiing with his Carriage House class.  C got to ski with him this week.  

I can't wait, I am going at the end of the month!

W's skills are developing nicely.  He really likes it.  It will be an exciting spring for him - he's going to ski with his daddy and hopefully his G-pa Shotts.

W was stoked to be going out skiing again this week. They were going to be doing a Scavenger hunt on the mountain. From what we have heard, W's ski skills have been progressing nicely. Can't wait to shred with him this spring!

breakfast with zeph

Every Sunday we (C, Z & I) go to breakfast after dropping W at Bombers. This week we went to Park + Main.

walker

Zeph walking forward and even backwards with the Tonka walker. Still won't walk unassisted though. (He even walks up and down stairs at school!). C and I just don't get it. Stubborn kid!

shredding the gnar

(sorry the photos are not of great quality, C took them on his phone as they skied by)
