I don’t normally get to plan play dates for my kids and I always feel bad for that. Since the kids are off this week, I worked from home today and was able to have one of Chloe’s friends over for a play.

Lunch: sole meuniere with steamed broccoli

Are they making hammock ?

I’m glad Shane also had fun playing with the girls.

Every morning, I look forward to getting a latte first thing.

Starbucks lady: Your name please?
Me: HaaaeeeeWon
Starbucks lady: … ?
Me: H. A. E. W. O. N.
Starbucks lady: …
Me: Just write H W
Starbucks lady: OK.

Uh…

Happy coworkers.

After work, I also got to  enjoy a little R&R…

It’s our last night in Steamboat. It’s been an amazing week spending time skiing on the beautiful mountain and to be hosted by this lovely couple. We’ll miss you so much!

Judy’s been putting leftover food right in front of their house for this fox come and eat every night and I got to see this sneaky little pretty animal last night! So cute!

We took a hot chocolate break with Mr. Ken.

Then we went down on two more blacks – Cyclon and Upper Valley trails.

We met with kids after ski school and spent the last afternoon in Steamboat skiing together.

What an incredible week it has been! Kids have improved so much. Chloe’s skiing comfortably on blues and Shane’s tried a half pipe and likes to find little jumps while skiing various trails.

Andrew and kids coming home.

Chloe’s done. Done.

A delicious meal was waiting for us at the lodge. Oh you are so good to us!

They are serious hockey fans. Look how enthusiastically they are watching the game.

Today we are done with lessons and we are exploring new trails. 3 out of 4 of these trails are done!

Skiing with the residents. 🙂

Happy birthday Ken! Glad we could be part of your special day.

This condo complex has a Monday cocktail hours by the pool. Judy ordered kids their first Shirley Temple.

Chloe’s not sure what to think of it at first but she definitely enjoyed being with adults.

Judy’s been cooking delicious meals every night for everyone so I thought I would help out and make beef stew for dinner tonight.

Followed by her delicious cookies.

Chloe’s catching up on her homework.

Great company, great wine, great food…

We saw a vertical rainbow and one of the locals called it sun dogs.

Swimming in the pool!

Nice hot tubs… we’ll be coming here a lot…
