Rachel Comes to Visit

The update of my blog is due to Rachel coming for her annual visit. She has a tendency to take lots of great pics of my kids (as opposed to their own mother.) So, thanks to her, the following is for your viewing enjoyment.

Cameron's birthday was the 22nd. We got him Air Force paraphernalia. For those who are not currently aware....Cam has his entire life already planned out. He plans to attend the AF Academy, become an astronaut, and become the first man to walk on Mars.


We all decided to take Rachel skiing because that is her favorite thing to do. :-) Check out her new coat she bought in Utah. The kids were thrilled to share the first ski of the season with "Eeooch".


The Schadeggs came along as well. Here is Aub and Rylan.

Cam also got a new snowboard for Christmas/birthday. He picked it up quick and loves it.
Holly took another lesson this year. We were all proud of her progress.
...as was Rachel.

Caleb helping his little sister with her skis...too cute!

Holly in her lesson...she's a natural! Gotta be if you're a Pirtle, I guess (unless you happen to be the mom.)

We had a great time. We are always grateful for Rachel taking time out with her own family to come and see us. We luf her!
