Training with Mickey













Our Winter Season at Blue Mountain

This was our first winter season skiing with the kids. We decided that if we were going to commit the funds to this expensive sport, then we would make the most of it and get our monies worth! And we did. The kids participate in the 9 week ski lessons and we also went one other day each week. We spent 2 nights there over the Family Day holiday and while Heinrich was demolishing our kitchen (more on that later), I took the kids and Phoebe for 5 days. All in all, we had 20 days of amazing skiing. Definitely worth the investment and what a great way to pass the grey winter days.

Our hotel where we stayed - the Westin. They permit dogs which is fantastic.





Phoebe enjoyed the fireplace in the hotel lobby!

Mickey's 8th Birthday

Mickey had a puppy themed party this year since we had a new addition to our household. With her birthday being just after Christmas it's sometimes tricky to plan. The kids got to play with Phoebe, make collars for their toy puppies, design a dog house, and played in the snow. The party was a huge success!
