Sledding

We took some students from Egypt and some other friends sledding on Saturday.   The Egyptians loved playing in the snow.  They took hundreds of pictures of each other.  We played for about 2 hours before the students needed to work.
  It was a beautiful day, the wind picked up for a little bit and there were snow storms all around us but it stayed nice where we were.  

 
There ended up being 6 kids and 9 adults.  The grown ups had as much fun as the kids racing and finding new steeper, faster hills.

The guys of course had to build a jump.

How do you like the "extras" in this shot?

Boston was definitely the best at landing his jumps (except for his last run).  Others landed straight on their back or sideways.  I am sure most people were pretty sore today.

Trick or Treat

I was so excited that we finally have enough kids in our neighborhood to stay home and trick or treat.  We had all but 2 kids come.  We went to the business first and then we were supposed to head back to the neighborhood but the kids started knocking on the hotel room doors. 





Leaves!

Boston had a short week at school so, he and I went to SLC.  This was a perfect afternoon for playing in the leaves.








Pumpkin Farm


I was surprised that Boston wanted to ride the horse.  He usually hates animals.


Boston loved the corn cannon.  



Crazies!




No doubt these two were meant to be cousins.

Check out my new smile!

Pulling out his tooth was a very traumatic experience.   He kept saying, "Are you sure this won't hurt?  Are you sure I will be able to eat?  Are you sure I should pull it out?"


New smile!

His other bottom tooth was loose. He started wiggling it the next day.  He pulled it out at 6 am the next morning.  I had to explain that the tooth fairy had already gone home and could not come until tomorrow.
