A New Year and Some Really Cold Weather

On New Year's Day Mason made a pinata





They had fun with it


We stuck a sparkler in an orange and watched what happened as is burned inside the orange


Henry set all of his car tracks up together and had a blast


I fried up some halibut from Alaska for dinner one evening


Mason after setting up breakfast for everyone


The marble run is back!


The kids used their gift card from Grandma and Grandpa Bullock at the Well Read Moose


Henry loves this puzzle he bought


We taught Henry how to make a PBJ sandwich


Nixon has impressed me with his scripture study this year


Henry is working on his coloring


We made it our skiing as a family on the last Saturday of the Christmas break


There was lots of new snow and the conditions were awesome



Here is a jump I caught Nixon on


We tried out the new Harry Potter board game


Kim and I took a day off this week while the kids were in school and we skied together


The mountain had gotten LOTS of fresh snow and it wasn't too cold yet (that changed two days later)


We had a great time together and skied lots of runs


It was a beautiful day




Mason made this. It is 6 sheets of paper put together


Friday it got really cold (a high of -20 Celsius) and yesterday was a high of -19 Celsius. Yesterday morning when it was about -22C I tried throwing boiling water into the air and this was the result










Other than the fear of hurling boiling water at my body, it was pretty fun


Kim and the kids played this game in the afternoon yesterday and after the kids enjoyed stacking the blocks


Mason had fun pulling as many blocks out as possible before it collapsed


It is supposed to warm up on Tuesday so stay warm and have a good week!
