Rocky Mountain High

We had a fantastic time visiting Uncle Tommy and Jean and skiing the slopes of Vail and Beaver Creek.  




 
Some of my favorite moments weren't on the slopes, but rather at Tommy and Jean's beautiful new home.  An old family tradition of ours in a new space.  I love these moments of working together and then eating together.


And probably my favorite moment of the trip.  My 4 kids sat down together designing and drawing ski mountains.  I have been so blessed by their creativity.  This moment struck me so profoundly for a couple of reasons.  It started as the younger two drawing, but the older brothers took an interest and joined in.  We are so busy at home with everyone's activities that moments of the four of them all together are not as common as they once were.  Also, my Luca is a senior, the days of us all together under one roof every night are fleeting.    
Lastly, upon our return home, Luca conceived this idea and enlisted the help of his siblings to bring it to fruition.
