Weekend in Park City






Had a great time in Park City this weekend. We stayed in a condo with Jen's sister's family and Mike's neice from California. This is the 4th straight President's Day weekend that we have spent in Park City, so I am trying to convince Jen that it's a tradition so we have to go back every year. :-)

Highlights of the trip included taking Mikayla skiing for the first time, hitting what must be the coolest bowling alley in the world (Jupiter Bowl), attending the Tabernacle Choir performance, snowshoeing in Round Valley, snowmobiling at Daniels Summit, and losing to Chris at all board games.

Black Diamond Kid

Last weekend I took Jacob skiing (Anna had a cold), and Jacob wanted to push the limits of his ability. After telling him several times that we could not hit a double black diamond run, I took him over to one so he could see it. The dude had no fear, and just started skiing down it. He made it down with no problems, and made us go back to take his picture in front of this sign.

Jacob is definitely our adventurous one. This week he told me that he thought my job was boring -- I tried to explain to him that what I do is really cool, I love it, etc. He said if I had a cool job I would be traveling to the moon or finding lost cities in the jungle. To each his own, I guess.
