What I did on teacher institute day

Sure, Fun Daddy and I are in Vegas that means that les filles had to go somewhere, right? Usually that means to Nana and Papa's house... but this time, les filles have traveled with Richard and Charles to Denver and are staying with Richard's brother and sister in law... What are they doing?
Well, the guys have always wanted to take the girls skiing... well, teach them to ski, actually. And now they have gotten the opportunity... Here are the shots of mes sweet petites learning to shoosh down the hills like pros. Per Charles, they both were a bit shaky at the beginning but eventually got the hang of it and enjoyed themselves. They got home, took showers, went grocery shopping with Richard and helped with dinner... then each took an advil for her achy bones and retired the evening... all of this by 9:00pm. In all fairness, they will be heading back to the mountain at 7:00am tomorrow morning, so I guess they need their beauty sleep.

I am completely loving that they can down hill ski... since all I ever learned was cross country....

Yeah, but we had a blast cross country skiing! Remember the ski field trips we got to take for gym? Whoever took a FIELD TRIP for gym? LOL, those were the best, next to the band trips!

Did you go to see Rita Rudner like I told you to?
