Finally...

Finally!! A new post! Sorry for the lack of them. School has kept me really busy, and I just plain forgot about it! I hope to post more regularly now, though.

One fun thing we are doing this winter is Massanutten's License to Slide program. You go six times, and everything is included for a great price! It has been so much fun, and everyone has been able to do it except for Eric, because of school.

Dad and Luke on the lift.

Luke and me at the top.

The first day when we all went.

Isaac has been skiing some, but also trying snowboarding. He is learning really fast and is pretty good now!

Fall Time!!

Eric had a great season of soccer! He made one of the travel teams in Fredericksburg, and then he tried out for the State Olympic Development Program team, and made that!

We had a beautiful fall! The leaves are amazing!

Over thanksgiving, we went to North Carolina, and hiked up Shumont Mountain. This view is looking west of Lake Lure.

Then we got snow!! Towards the beginning of December, we got about 7 inches.

The sunsets here are awesome.

I had an orchestra concert, and we didn't have many brass players, so dad got out his trombone and played along.

We made a bunch of peppermint patties to give away. They are sooo good!

Then we got a huge snow storm!! We got at least 18 inches. It was beautiful!

And a month later we were still enjoying it! It took a really long time to melt, and there are still some piles!

And these two wonderful cows are on their way to a better place...the freezer.

We went cross country skiing the middle of January at Pipestem State Park in West Virginia. It was a lot of fun!

Timothy did such a good job keeping up with everyone! Here Dad is teaching him how.
