So I finally updated (Yay!!) I really have been working on it, but for some reason the videos seriously took from morning to night to "process" and then upload. I don't know why, but this did incite a little complaining from me (o.k. maybe a lot of loud complaining) which led to the "don't be such a woman, mom" comment from Landen. It is now the favorite saying to anyone complaining in our household.

Snowboarding

We took the kids snowboarding up Huntington Canyon. They surprised us with how well they did. I thought there would be lots of crashing, whining, and tears, but they were amazing!

Pat and I had a chance to go down the hill a couple of times, but mostly the kids did the riding.

Alyssa learned that walking up the hill really makes you tired!

She went about 10 times and then had enough.

Landen didn't have to worry about walking back up. It was much easier to carry him with his board and all than trying to get him strapped in over and over. I think he about 50 times. It is much easier when everyone else is doing the work for you. Poor Pat, he did most of it!

These videos were taken the next weekend in Joe's Valley, at the Cabin. Pat and Grandpa took Landen up and made him a hill. He can't get enough.

Landen had a pretty good face plant on this one. It didn't stop him at all!

He gets really mad when he doesn't make it all the way to the end as you can see in this next video. He decides to take it out on the snow.

This one is of Alyssa up Huntington Canyon. Just tilt your head to watch. For some reason I can't get the video to stay flipped when I upload it, and ignore the excited mom commentary. I really was not expecting them to do so well, so I was really excited when she made it down the hill.

Gymnastics Competition Feb. 27, 2010

This was Alyssa's First tumbling pass. She did so well, straight legs, pointed toes, cute smile. She is such a performer. I have never seen her do it this well. When we try to practice she gets really mad at me, but when it comes time to perform she is great!

Her second pass was just as good. I am so proud of her.

Cheyanne took first, Alyssa took second, and Maya took third. All from flips -N- Tricks gym. We are so proud of them!

Alyssa (2nd) and Cheyanne (1st) with their medals. It is so much fun for Alyssa to have a cousin to do all of this with. They both did great.
