Time to Snowboard

Loveland and Abasin are open!

Last week was a bit rough. Casey and I were both sick all week. Aunt Kel was sick too. Fortunately, we are all feeling much better this week!

Wed, we had an "episode" at daycare. When I was handing Casey over to her teacher, she started crying so hard, a silent cry where she doesn't take a breath, so she passed out for a second. She came to right away, but it's so scary. She has done this a couple times before and it is something that some pre-toddler/toddlers do occasionally. I can usually stop the episode by blowing in her face while she's crying and it brings her back to reality. Unfortunately, I was in the midst of handing her over and neither of us could blow in her face quick enough. After the episode, she did end up going over to the teacher, still crying a little, but she stopped immediately after I left the room. Hoping that doesn't happen again this week!

Friday we drove down to Denver to run errands and pick up Stan from the airport. We stayed the night at Kirsi and Konlee's house in the city. Amy, Kristi, Ken and Isaac came over to visit.

Saturday we woke to snow and very chilly weather in Denver. We watched the first half of the VT/BC game at a downtown bar, Jacksons, with the Denver Hokie Alumni Club. The second half we watched at Mark and Amy's house while the kids napped. We actually had to wake Casey up from her nap so we could make it to the Circus in time. Casey enjoyed the Ringling Bros Circus at Denver Coliseum. It was 2 hours long with an intermission, but for the most part, Casey paid attention to the "greatest show on earth!" After the Circus we went back to Mark and Amy's to celebrate Amy's birthday with Ribs for dinner. We headed back up the mountain after dinner.

Sunday Stan and I went snowboarding at Abasin in the afternoon. Luck had it that our friend Tiff was in town and she met us at Abasin and watched Casey for an hour while we rode. Stan went again this morning. Snowboard season has officially begun!!
