And then it was Sunday

I haven’t been home enough lately.

Friday morning, a little less than a week since I returned,  I headed off again for the mountains, this time for a girls’ ski trip with some of my besties. Me and the other Jess (Jess²) skied all day, minus about a 20 min break for lunch. Then we met up with the newly arrived, went out for dinner and came back for a relaxing evening in the condo. Saturday was more skiing, the viewing of a teeny bikini contest (on skis), dinner and a fun night dancing at an Irish bar. We came home this morning in semi-nasty conditions with a little extra sun on our faces and our batteries fully recharged.

It was great to see Matt and the kids. They had a wonderful time without me, broke all the rules (y’know the ones about changing clothes, showering and eating nutritious things). We spent most of the afternoon at a swimming birthday party. It was the first time the kids had been in the pool since they started lessons and it was amazing to see how much their confidence has grown.

After naps, my parents brought over corned beef and cabbage. My dad makes the best and the kids were very appreciative of his efforts, begging to have leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

Just like that, the weekend is done. Now back to the grind for another four days until … spring break!
