all my friends--you are all soo cool! i was so excited to see so many comments--this is way easy to keep in touch--maybe i'll actually comment on yours instead of my secretive lurking! so, what's new at our house? A new fence, thanks to my fabulous husband! ours blew down this winter during several big east winds, and we were getting a little sick of our neighbors dog!(i'm sure that they loved having mine in their yard though!) we got it up just in time for more snow to fall (yes mccall friends, i know its worse there!) but hopefully spring is really coming and the kids can enjoy the sandbox and new fence. i will say that thigh deep powder yesterday when i went skiing was very nice. its the best coverage i have ever seen up there! armando and i even got to take a run together at his lunch break. according to him, i am still a better skier than him but not by much! great! i've been doing it for 25 years and he has been doing it for 2! just wait until all the kids are in school....speaking of kids--here is cassie on easter. please take note of her boots, they are her favorite. she has a serious shoe obsession (as all girls should) and loved her easter ensamble (i have no idea if i spelled that correctly). so here she is in all her glory. the boys are pretty darn cool too.
