Anyway, my absence was caused by my spending so much time getting ready for the Fairfax County Moms of Multiples clothing sale, which was a smashing success. It is one of the very few and far between opportunities for me to contribute a very small amount of income toward our suffering family budget. Therefore, I take full advantage of this rare time to make that miniscule contribution, plus I volunteer during the sale. Both tasks ARE wonderfully rewarding. And I get to do it twice a year, YAY ME!
Next, it was time for CJ's annual, 7-day trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming with his Memom and Grandpa. However, this year we ALL tagged along. That's right folks, SEVEN very different personalities on one trip! This combination makes for a week of UPS and DOWNS!!! This trip could best be described as exciting, interesting, challenging, fabulous, tedious, and unexpected to say the least! And I have a ton of pictures to prove it : ) Of course I will only post a few here.
HIGHLIGHTS:
--Caasmom's injury and ER visit.
--D learned to snowboard and bruised his coccyx. (Uhuh, uhum she said "cocks", huhh)
--CJ began paralleling in his ski moves and stops and thus was allowed to go the very TIP TOP of the Targhee slopes and ski down with mom and grandpa, WOW!
--BA went "weeee" down the mountain.
--BB slept on the snow for an ENTIRE day when he was sick, although the first day he did ski quite well.
--Hot Heads, Hot Springs, and looking for MEESE!
--Baby snowmobiling and pulling a sled ALL DAY! (thanks Sachse girls)
--Caasmom dropping the ball on the whole "need for sunscreen on a snow covered mountain" thing and having the entire family suffer greatly for that with blistered faces, sorry ya'll. : (
--BB getting the brunt of snowmobile "turning-over accidents."
All in all, a fabulous trip and of course a great chance to spend some family time together in one of the most beautiful places God ever made.
