When Connor started kindergarten, his schedule changed DRASTICALLY. Instead of being home with me every day all day, he began leaving for school every morning at 7:30, going to school until 3:00, and then to football practice with his dad (I was coaching volleyball) until about 6:00. By the time we got home and ate some dinner, it was 7:00 and bedtime for Connor is 8:00. Since volleyball ended, this schedule hasn't changed much since he loves going to basketball practice with his dad as well. Needless to say, Connor and I have not had much time together. So I decided to schedule some.
On President's Day, we went to Cokeville to get our family pictures taken, which I will share in my next post. Afterward, I took Connor up to Pine Creek Ski Area to teach him to ski. We just did the rope tow, but within a couple hours, I felt like he was ready to go up the lift. So the following Wednesday, we went back for a full day on the big hill. Tony was there as well, since the middle school was there for a school field day. We had a great time, and as my dad would say, Connor was a "shish-boomer." Afterward, Connor asked me if I thought he would be in the Olympics someday for skiing. I told him that you probably had to ski more than once a year to get that good. Here are some pics from our fabulous day!
I guess the skiing didn't give me enough time with my boy, so last week on Wednesday evening, we hit the road. He and I (without Tony or the girls) made the long trip to Casper for 1A/2A state basketball. We had a GREAT time watching my sisters play ball, swimming at the hotel, and watching more and MORE basketball! Connor is a basketball junkie and didn't complain for a second about watching 5 games per day for 3 straight days. (In fact, day before yesterday, he went with his dad to Ogden to watch Weber State play, and tomorrow we're heading back to Casper for a couple more days of basketball with 3A/4A state tournament. He can hardly wait!) It was great to see my parents, Violet, Sullivan, Olivia, and Tessa. And to spend a whole lot of one-on-one time with Connor!
