Skiing at Chicopee

Preparing for our trip to Beaver Creek, CO - we decided to reintroduce Jordan and Brianna to skiing. Brianna remembered how to ski, and Jordan picked it up really fast.... He's been on skis for a total of 3hrs!

Hockey and Ringette

The kids have been skating a lot this week..... They go out after dinner and homework or piano practise and skate, play, practise. The skating's been especially good with Jordan. His skating has probably improved 100% and he now sleeps in to at least 7:30am vs waking up at 5:30am.
