Lauren & Josie Skiing
As those of you who know Hill, patience is one of his finest qualities. And his patience has been shown time and time again as he has taught many members of the Austin family how to ski. He started off with yous truly...then onto Toby, Austin, Natalie, Josie, Lauren and finally James and Grace.
Here is a little clip of Lauren and Josie skiing this weekend. It is hard for the kids when they only get one or two days a year on the slopes. They spend all day remembering all their bodies need to do to not fall. Then spend the whole year remembering they knew how to do it. Then they get back out a year later and have to learn all over again.
All the kids do a great job, but we have been blown away by Lauren's natural talent. Just wish she lived closer and we could ski with her more often!

Winter Carnival
The Winter Carnival really is one of the best things about life here in Steamboat. You feel a real sense of community starting at the Knights of Columbus Pancake Breakfast and walking over to Main Street to watch the locals, young and old alike, compete in the street events. It is magical how the town celebrates its snow. We have been so fortunate that for four of our five years here, we have had family travel up to enjoy the festivities with us. This year Annie's parents along with her nieces Josie and Lauren came up.
