I'm back...

I know I've been gone for along time, but summer got away from me.  I've recently started back to work after an extended leave with the Kraken.  I'm lucky enough to be working from home, so I still get lots of time with my little man, but have a few more restrictions on my time - no snow cough for me.  Oh well, structure is good, right?

But with these changes I'm also seeing a change of season, hello fall, which means ski season is quickly approaching.  Over the weekend I had a chance to attend a program offered by the Ski Cellar and RCR called "Women in Winter".  It's an all ladies event that offers a supportive environment to check out the latest gear and meet the product reps for the gear.  Not to mention lots of wonderful give aways!  Overall, it was a fun afternoon out that got me in the ski mindset.

We also took a big step this year and picked up season passes to Nakiska.  They were offering them for $200, so we didn't see how we could say no.  We even grabbed a pass for the Kraken.  Yep, we are planning on getting him onto the hill this year.  Sadly, it looks like his feet are too small for ski boots, so we might have to take trip to Canadian Tire and grab some plastic strap-on skis.  But, whatever works and gets him out there.  He loves the outside and asks to escape the house at 7:00am, so were thinking skiing might be a great winter answer to his love of fresh air.

This is just a quick post to let you know I'm back and that I look forward to filling you in on the gear I test out and nay other fun adventures I get up to in the coming months.  Stay tuned for the excitement!
