Going up the mountain on a "swing"

aka ski lift

Watch out here she comes!

So what have the Kreiders been up too? We have been enjoying a lot of family time these past couple of weeks! It's great to everyone healthy again. I'm not sure why I just typed that... don't want to jinx myself!

Last weekend we took the kids out skiing for the first time. What a blast! We got to the ski slope and I pulled out my camera.... dead battery! Could not believe it. The only pic from that day is of Alissa sitting in the house with her helmet on. Oh well! The kids did amazing. We got both of them lessons. No fear for sure! Neither one wanted to leave when it was time to go!

This week was a big week for Benjamin. Benjamin was approached to try out for Warwick's Travel Baseball team. We weren't so sure about it, but after getting more info and talking with Benjamin this was something he really wanted to try. Tryouts were Monday and Wednesday night. The roster was posted on Thursday.... and he made it! We are so excited for him and proud of him! If you click on the following it will take you to his team... Warwick Travel Baseball . Go Warwick Cardinals!

This past weekend we took the kids out skiing again. Mom remembered to charge the camera battery this time! Once again the kiddos amazed us! Benjamin just took off down the mountain like he's been skiing for years. He was loving it. Alissa aka as "animal" (this was the name her instructors gave her the weekend before) was just as crazy. Her first ski lift experience was on one that took up 6 people. She loved it! She wanted nothing to do with the bunny slope. She was all about the "swing". She still has a lot to learn. At this point she skis down the hill holding onto our poles, but still she's only 4! No fear! Once again an another amazement considering that last year at this time she was still learning English! Wow!

Today is a day at home with the kids. No school... Martin Luther King Jr day. Enjoying my day!
