This day. Big Mountain, not so big.

Looking at her Papa! "Teach me"

Dec. 6th, 2015:  Today. So needed. My heart is so full. I told Andy that it is exploding with Joy! Yesterday I let Andy go snowboarding as it is free week if you have a frequent card and I knew it was needed for his mind and soul. He got home and quickly said I really want you to go tomorrow. I think he knew that it would be good for my mind and soul. I really had no interest going by myself. I have too much to get done around here  (laundry is never ending, diapers and Tupperware are continually strewed across the floor etc.) and with Christmas presents... But we decided it was worth it to go (you only live once) and to pay for a babysitter being it's free week and come Thursday we lose our babysitter due to Christmas break. Let me just say it was worth every minute of Pay. "Collect Moments not Things right?' I had the best day. It was perfect. Minus two were missing, please no comments as it will make my heart feel worse. I thought I would miss that Big Mountain, those big runs, but I have a whole knew perspective on that big mountain and see it through such different eyes (is this really going to happen with my snowmachine too?). Seeing Zoe's eyes light up for her first snow experience (not only was this her first snowboarding experience, it was her first time in snow) her bright smile as she made her runs, made my heart explode with Joy! I loved watching her wave her hands in the snow, questioning "what this beautiful white stuff was (it looks like diamonds Mom?)" Seeing the Joy in her face, the smile, and her eyes light up as she went down the "big mountain" on our snowboards, it was all I needed as far as a big mountain run. Andy asked me if I wanted to go do some "runs," on my own, but no, actually I am content right here watching this. I am sure she was the only 16 month old riding down the "big mountain" on Mom and Dad's boards. 16 Months=4 laps=shreddin' (who says you can't do it on a board!)

"enojoy the little things in life, for one day you will look back, and realize they were the big things."

Playing. This is what life is about!

Our little shredder. Showin' them how it's done at 16 months! "What? I got this!" "Who needs skis!"

Look out girls!

Zayne and Ziah you are next. My heart is sad you are not with.

"Dad, this white stuff is so fun and so cool...It sparkles!"

"Mom can do it too Dad!"

Me and Mama!

Life is good!

Look at me and my Mom
