We have been running since we had our kids - in every way! Life is like a marathon - full of uphills and downhills, water stops, taking the time to stretch, beautiful views, fast sprints, slow walks, and yes, sore muscles. But we are thankful for all of it because when we reach the finish line at the end of each day we know that it was all worth it!

Marlie and her ski lessons


We finally got Mar into ski lessons - the Deseret News special for 49 dollars. It consisted of 4 lessons and she did them with her cousin Olivia. We watched in agony at first as the teacher had 12-15 students, trying to get them all to get used to moving around on skis. Things got better in the following lessons and they even got to go up the lift a few times. We've been up since - Marlie and I took a ski day a few weeks ago and it was amazing how much she had learned.
Best moment: Olivia and Marlie ended up on the chairlift by themselves the first time up. Both told us later that they were so scared that they were going to fall off, that they both started bawling...
