Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! The whole photo album is updated, and I tried to grab the favorite memories from the year in this slideshow in case you missed them.

Merry Christmas! The whole photo album is updated, and I tried to grab the favorite memories from the year in this slideshow (below – click on play) in case you missed them.

The slideshow below is set to Bruce Springsteen’s “If I Should Fall Behind.” Dave introduced me to it, and now it’s one of my favorite songs because it reminds me of all the times we’ve looked out for each other on the trail hiking or biking. Well, except for those times when Dave has tried to ditch me because I’m “INSANE!” or a “KOOOK-HEAD!” as the kids say!

Reflections on a great ride + photos in Album

This is from a few weeks ago when it didn't pass 32 degrees out. Now it's in the 50s! Crazy!

New photos and video have been uploaded to the album!!! Check the folders for Nov and Dec to see a hockey tournament, Sam trying out being goalie, Ben in basketball, and the cutest the Christmas elf you’ve ever seen…

As I was untacking and mucking the stall, the sunlight popped through the door and really caught my eye as it reflected off the stirrup iron. I enjoy thinking about a great ride for days after...until the next adventure! Then I get a little nervous again ;)

An early Christmas present

On a trail ride today - the first time with Emmy! I have been looking forward to getting her out on the trails for so long - I love trail running as well. And this is my instructor, Janet , for whom I am so thankful. I've learned a lot this year, and look forward to the promise of many more opportunities to learn! :) Many thanks to Denika, who took this picture. Great fun!

Portland hockey tournament over Thanksgiving

We were in Portland over the Thanksgiving weekend for a hockey tournament. It was a lot of fun! Not so great driving back on Sunday, but we managed just fine and even squeezed in a trip to some outlets to get the kids new shoes. They go through them about every three months.

Here is the video of the first game, including the first goal of the tournament which I happened to grab! Enjoy! (Dave wasn’t able to come so I did film quite a bit of Sam’s ice time so he could see some of it at least.) You might want to turn your volume down…

Faces

Enjoy this Sam creation – I especially loved the captions. He was doing faces while texting with a friend on the way home from Portland yesterday (hockey tournament) and must have enjoyed it enough to start this on a Google docs file. I sneaked in and snipped it to share 🙂 He knows I did, don’t worry!
