Spring is here!

These little flowers are everywhere!  Anyone know what
they are?

Sophie and Noah thought this was a  good hide out place.

Making plans for their hideout.

Lovely blue skies!

Impressive wood piles like this one all through the
 forest.
Peabody is still hiking with us!
While Jon and Thomas headed off for one last day skiing the younger two kids and I walked around in the forest near our house.  They had been in the school play the night before and couldn't face the early morning wake up call necessay for skiing.  Besides hard to get in the mood for skiing with weather and temps like this!

Last ski of the season

Jon and Thomas headed off for Davos on Sunday to have one last day of skiing for the 2010-2011 season.  They can now say they skied 6 months this year (November- April)  As you can see, it was warm enough to ski in shorts!  The other two kids and I were walking around in the woods in shorts and t-shirts! Hope Thomas's feet don't grow this summer as he is in the largest ski boots made (without special ordering them!  Yikes!  Can't even imagine what that would cost in Switzerland!!)
Shorts and ski boots-a fairly unusual combination!
