Life before Tanner . . .

. . . looked a little bit like this: (except for the chipmunk voices - I can't figure out how to get our cell phone videos to upload onto blogger without making us sound like alvin, simon, and theodore. Sorry! But you get the gist!)


My mom and dad are SAINTS and they not only gave me the gift of a day of skiing for my birthday (which was at the end of January), but my mom spent one of her days in Utah last week watching the Tanman while Eli and I went skiing! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU mom and dad!!! We had an INCREDIBLY FUN day together and it helped remind us of our days before Tanner and our awesome friendship that has been dormant for a little while since the little man joined our fam. (We love Tan and are SO grateful that he is basically the center of our lives, but we miss US time. Does anybody else feel like this ever?)

Anywho, we had a total blast skiing at Brighton all day. The snow was powdery and falling lightly all day, and the slopes were uncrowded since we went on a Friday. And the chili baked potato lunch (that's actually only half of what we ate - we went all out and had a HUGE lunch since we never get to go skiing) was bueno bueno bueno! Here are some cell phone pics from our fabuloso day on the slopes:


This is what happens when you try to take kissing-the-cheek pictures while standing backwards on a slope:

I kept laughing...

...so Eli did this.


It's actually fun to reminisce back to childhood and put snow on our faces!

Love, love love!

"The Snowboarder face" - But what does a snowboarder face actually look like??? Who knows, we weren't snowboarding anyways!

Excited to Ski together ALL DAY LONG!!!!
