Really fun fam vacation
/Despite the fact that T and I seem to have been struck by a recurrence of the crappy cold we've been battling for a month now, this trip has really been fun so far. There's not much in the way of food news to speak of, sadly, though I'm grateful we brought all we did: homemade blueberry muffins and fresh fried Amish slab bacon this morning were a treat! We also brought some freshly ground coffee and our moka-pot from Italy (stove-top espresso maker) so had two nice lattes as well. We taught Jack to play Clue (still such a good game) and then headed off to the slope. Literally one slope. Totally OK- we had a ball. The kids did a great job in ski school, and for T and me, it felt like old times. I think it's so important, especially once kids come along, to do things as a couple that help you remember how you once were. It's easy to focus on just getting through each day, tag-teaming your way and then crashing into bed each night utterly exhausted and spent. So this morning was really nice. Then I took Jack for one last run, we had a quick lunch, I sent T home to tend to his headache, and the boys and I played in the arcade. Skeeball is such a fun game, as are those road races where can drive like a fiend, hitting walls and bus stops be damned!
