So our last adventure was a couple weeks ago. We took the big trip out to Utah with my family. I was 32 weeks pregnant so it was kinda risky or would be if I didn't have such a history of going way past term. We tried to stop frequently for me and for the girls to run out some energy. It turned out better than expected, and I think it will be a long treasured memory for us all. The girls both started to learn to ski. It was kinda torturous for me just sitting and watching the others have fun, so I snuck in a few moves.
First of all this is West TN snow just to compare to the masses of snow out in the Utah Mountains. And we thought we were getting so much snow! HA!
Sadi just stood there since the boots went to her knees and sped down the mountain. We would drag them up and catch them at the bottom. Nana, Papaw and I really got out workout for sure.
Lydia liked the skiing more if she could strip off some of her clothes. We were lucky to find pink snow pants and a "BYU" thick jacket at Deseret Industries that she agreed to wear, which still didn't stay on long.
The boredom got to me and so I snowboarded. Not to worry Dad or Jon held me as I went down the hill a few feet....not too exciting but oh well.
And here is Jon bundled up for the big slopes making it down another time alive! After giving himself a concussion (self diagnosed) he decided to slow it down a little.
Here is Papaw getting ready for the lifts after "mastering" the bunny hill.
And here is Nana learning again how to maneuver the skis.

I was JUST thinking about you today! Love you and can't wait to hear about baby boy!
Looks like such a fun trip! You are so brave to drive that far at 32 weeks. (Reminds me of the time I drove to DC when I was 34 wks pg with Cindi) for your parent's wedding. Longest. Drive. Ever! But soooooo worth it...love you all so very much!
