Chance, The Photographer

For Christmas this year, Santa brought a "real" camera. Chance loves taking pictures (Baganz genes) and goes around the house constantly snapping shots. I thought I'd post a couple of his recent ones:

Our daily Skypes.....Here's Umpa (my dad)....

A recent playdate at the house with Jack, Ava, Gabriella and Kate....

Cyndy with Gabriella and Ava....

Cool lego "house" we made....

Mama Mia

This weekend was packed full of fun.

Friday night we had a family party over at the Sacarro house. Always a good time for the old and young......the kids and adults each had our friends there to enjoy.

Ryan had his work ski weekend in Davos, so Saturday Chance and I were left to fend for ourselves. We had a nice day getting in to the Easter spirit and painted eggs for the first time. Chance really got in to it and made some nice creations! I hadn't done that for years......it was nice to start back a fun childhood tradition.



BUT the long anticipated day was today. Chance waited all week to go back to the slopes and give it another try.


Ryan drove our "borrowed" car (I'll have to explain that in another post some day soon) to Davos for his work thing, and then met us in Flumserberg this morning.

Chance was flowing with anticipation as we rode the gondola up the side of the mountain to the town.


To top off the day, his good buddy Ava and her dad, Mike aka Mr. Kelly, met us there to partake in the fun.



While the kids and dads were off skiing, I sat in the restaurant with a cup of tea and planned Ireland. It was nice to check that off the list. We all met for lunch and Chance inevitably tried to impress Ava....


and then it was back to the slopes for round 2, where Ava was nice enough to serenade us with some Abba, so we thought it would be fun to make a ski medley to show off the kids' blossoming ski skills:
