bday party phase 2

19 January 2015

Julia wanted to take a friend to get their nails done after the party. We headed to the salon, girls picked their colors and then sat down to have their manicures. Pretty sweet.

Happy birthday to Miss J!

Julia turned 8! She decided to have a sleep over party for her celebration. The girls painted some pillow cases to start the evening. After pizza we headed to the park for some zip lining in the dark!

No sleep over is complete without a movie. The strange eyes on everyone make it look like they are watching a horror movie. They totally aren’t though. Maybe in a few years.

The girls had a great time. Went to bed not too late, and enjoyed Julia’s choice for donuts for breakfast rather than cake. Fun party!

Happy New Year! (already?)

3 January 2015

As we all four had the week in between Chrismas and New Years off, we decided to head to the cabin. If we had our way it actually would have snowed a lot, but it didn’t and we went anyway. We managed some ice cold skiing on New Year’s eve. Had a hike with friends New Years Day. Did more skiing later in the weekend. Played games, watched movies and read. The only nice thing about no fresh snow mid week is that we could sleep in and get a late start to the mountain, AND still get a parking spot! That was nice.
