We spent the better part of the day (and night) at Chester Bowl today. They were having their winter festival - games, food, activities, firworks at the end of the night and of course skiing. I worked in the concession stand for a few hours and by the time we got home, the kids were so tired that both Ava and Zach fell asleep on the couch! That's some good, hard playing!
This is my favorite picture from our vacation! (I guess the pair really are my favorites). It gives a good little insight to the way the cousins got along...it was great!
Here is the play by play of all the great things we were able to do on vacation...
I don't think that I would have ever said that on Tuesday afternoon when they cancelled our flight for Saturday and rescheduled us for a 6:15 a.m. flight out of Minneapolis. I was pretty distressed at the thought of either leaving our house in the 2 a.m. range or having to get a hotel the night before. I was having a "that ain't right" moment. So, I decided to call Frontier and see if they were willing to do anything for us. After a few hours on the phone and being transferred to the right guy, he made a few calls and re-booked us on a United flight that left at 9:20 a.m. - much better! He also is sending us a $250 voucher for future travel. I couldn't have been happier...or so I thought!
The pictures don't really do it justice, but just take a look at the shadows in the back yard...this was at midnight!! It was the night of the "wolf moon" when the moon is at its closest and brightest of the year. It really was amazing. We had totally clear skies and with the snow, it reflected the light so much! You could see almost like it was daytime. Beautiful.
