Racing

The beautiful Beartooth range in the background

GS Red Lodge

We have been busy with ski racing the past month. We followed Jon to the Cody Invite in Red Lodge, MT. He had a fall during the Giant Slalom and we found out yesterday that he has a very small stress fracture on his heel. He will miss the Casper Invite this weekend :( but will hopefully be back next week to race in Pinedale. He took 1st for his team in Red Lodge and 10th overall Varsity. Giant Slalom is thrilling to watch, very fast speeds. Ian and Lizzy had their first race a few weeks ago and have been practicing on the weekends. We just need the snow to hit, we seem to be on the edge of every storm.

Christmas Fun

Christmas was spent at home with a beautiful white blanket of snow!

Rylan Michael

He is here!! Rylan Michael was born on the 3rd of December. He weighed 7 lbs. 14 oz. Mary is doing awesome and recovering so fast from her c-section...amazing!!

Blake Audrey

Blake Audrey was born on November 15th. A new girl cousin in the family. Scarlett went into labor at 32 weeks and was able to stay on bed rest and in the hospital for 3 weeks. Blake and Scarlett are healthy and finally at home! We can't wait to meet her! Mary and Stephen are next....any day now.

Brothers

We made it up on the mountain for family pictures before the snow hit. Ian and Jon had climbing first on their agenda, not photos. The last week has been cold and more snow in the forecast. I am hoping Fall will make return for a little bit. Baby showers, birthday parties and good family times are ahead. I am looking forward to a little rest and relaxation before ski racing starts up. Can you see Jon in the photo?

Change in the air

Summer is leaving us too soon. The kids are all back to school and each morning brings a little cooler weather. We will soon harvest the pumpkins and squash and settle in for Winter. Jon is taller than me now, at 5'9" and Ian is not far behind. Lizzy started Kindergarten and loves going to school like her brothers. Mary will be having a new baby in December and her little boy will be on the tramp with the cousins next year. : )

Scarlett Family Reunion

A family photo from the reunion in Grand Lake, CO (minus Gary). We spend 5 days fishing, hiking, golfing and eating.
