Because of the long weekend we just had, we went up to Logan to take care of a few things.
We got to say goodbye to Jon's brother, Matt, who is leaving for his second round of service in the military. First he was in Iraq, but this time he is going to Afghanistan. We are all worried about him. We love him and are so grateful for him. We pray all will go well.
On Saturday while Jon did our taxes, I went skiing with Christian, Hillarie and her boyfriend Mark (Jon lost his ski at Snowbasin his first time out this year). It was absolutely freezing and I was complaining about it the whole time! Finally, after a few hours I told them I needed to get home to the baby. Who cares if it wasn't entirely true?! (Don't be fooled by the sun in this pic, it was taken last year. I was way too lazy to pull my camera out this year. I'm not exactly sure about the ray of light over my face!)
We have been having such a hard time getting Ethan to stay in Nursery that we decided to let him earn (aka bribery) a new train set if he stayed. It actually worked.
