Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays- Happy New Year




May the gift of loved ones near be with you this holiday season.








We are heading to the States for the holiday season to share Christmas with Nina's family and welcome her brother back from Iraq. We look foward to driving the 2 horse open sleigh w/ Grammy and skiing the slopes of Sugarloaf. Nina and Michael are returning to Boulder for a quick visit. after almost 7 years to see friends and clean out a storage unit full of unnecessary objects.








What is the latest news in our family?


Birken has been testing out his skiis in the yard and looking forward to hitting the slopes. Anders is not far behind.

We had a great day at Val Ferret, Italy cross country skiing.

We have snow already here in Chamonix. We skied in Courmeyer mid week - not a sole and perfect groomers and great off piste, then celebrated nina's Birthday at a great little Italian place on the mountain.

The ski touring is great now. We have been up Le Tour and Tete de la Balme many times already preparing for the upcoming ski mountaineering season.
