Watching

What do ski racing, a hockey game and a basketball game all have in common?

The girls and I watched all three yesterday in our "backyard" here on campus.

Cheering on the racers.
Still cheering and catching a snack on the trusty chariot.

Friends joined us for the race.

Sledding with Dad.....Hannah is psyched.

Look at this funny face.
Mabel enjoying her lunch on the counter. Here are my pretty paper whites that greet me every morning in the kitchen.

Hannah catching some ZZZZZZ's.....books at the ready when she wakes up. She usually start flying through them when she slowly wakes up.

Happy New Year

We had a fun filled weekend with Friends. Sean, Sarah, and Skyah came up from Portsmouth and Tessa, Seth and Aven came over from Woodstock. We were all hoping to ski but we had no such luck. So the guys crossed biked and the girls went for an awesome New Years run to start our training for the half marathon we all signed up for in June. It was a great time and all the kids were so good.

Group picture.

My girls teaching Skyah and Aven how to do some "mud pie" with the pillows.

Sprints in the dorm hallway is always a good way to get some energy out.

This is up at the OB cabin New Years Eve where we had 14 Adults and 8 kids playing and eating Fondue. It was an adventure. The kids mostly played in the bunk beds.
Bella being good and staying out of the way! We have her for the month of January and so far so good :)
The stroller parking lot outside the cabin.
One fondue set.

The other fondue set and a lot of other yummy food.

After the dust settled the girls just wanted books read to them. Too cute.

Casey Family Christmas Album

We had a wonderful Christmas, sure hope you all did too.

The girls in their Christmas dresses. Headed to the candle light service in the church where Pat and I were married.
Hannah with her duck and frog and of course her back pack too.
Mabel with her new to her skis and boots. She cut a few turns in my parents backyard. I am so excited about this.
If you want to play dress up...Mabel and Hannah would love you to come to our house and do it with them!

Rain Rain Go Away, Bring some snow!

My two "yellow jackets" in December.....this wet stuff is suppose to turn to snow tonight and drop 4 - 8! Bring it on:)

So fun!

Mabel catching some air for a bigger splash.

There is a cabin out on the ski trails here at school. It is a great destination to get to with the kids. Here are Mabel and Hannah with Ben at the OB (outback) cabin.
The Christmas Parade last Saturday was awesome. Here are the girls loving every minute of it.
