December Snow!

Nordic skiing up in Smugglers Notch
We have found the sweet spot!  Upon returning from CT, we hit the slopes and have been hitting the slopes as much as we can.  The kids are doing so well skiing this year-- both nordic and downhill.  They are enthusiastic and passionate about getting out on the snow.  John and I keep looking at each other and the kids in amazement as they keep up with us and challenge themselves with big smiles on their faces.  And most importantly, Vermont has snow!



We even had a snow day!  On that snow day, the kids got up early, we packed up lots of snacks and craft projects and did what Abbott's do.  We got to Smuggs for one of the first chairs, skied first tracks, and spent the entire day enjoying our winter wonderland. John and I even managed to do some childcare swapping with a friend so we could do a little tour in the untracked snow.




Happiness is being able to do what you love with a family that seems to love it just as much as you do!


We also had a fun visit from Jackson.
