Lil' Dean Fam

We didn't get much snow this year and so when the snow fell on a public holiday, EVERYONE went to the slopes.  I mean, everyone in the entire Salt Lake Valley headed for the hills.  So many, in fact, that there were MAJOR slow downs and a lot of accidents.  UDOT reported over 50 slide offs and fender benders that morning between Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons.  Luckily, with a little persistence we were able to make it up the hill.  Jess and Cole had a little harder time with Cole being called into work TWICE!  It was pretty crazy.  By the end of the day, Jess only got like three or four runs in.  The kids continue to amaze us with how quickly they pick up the sports and they all did a great job.  No one got hurt and we all stayed warm as we were prepared for the sub-zero temperatures.  And that's it!  Just one day of skiing this year.  ...

This year I was in charge of running our neighborhood Christmas activity.  We did the Walk to Bethlehem and it was a lot of fun. 

The rest from November. Spent some time shopping at Scheels.  Colin bought a hat and of course I had to steal it from him.   Evan passed off all his math facts and threw a pie in his teachers face as a reward!  I painted my office.  I've always wanted to and I'm glad I did, I love it!  I made a quilt for a cute baby.  Finally went to lunch with Colin one day.  The boys tried holding a lizard and decided it was way too fast!  Thanksgiving with my family.  Driving in the Taco And of course, pack meeting!
