$5 Friday Funday!

Jeffrey and I went skiing for $5 Friday!  Jeffrey and his friend Ellis had been wanting to go all week, and it turned out that our neighbors were there too.  All our friends made it so much fun for us!  It was also the first time that Jeffrey skied down from the top of the mountain.  On the chairlift up he told me he was excited but a little scared.  Then he did a great job controlling his speed and direction in pretty icy conditions.
Top of Tussey!

Despite the very cold day, we enjoyed some runs down the mountain, then headed in for Cheezburgers and a Pepsi.  Our friends joined us in the lodge and we followed up with some Nachos!  

On one trip down from the top Jeffrey kept skiing all the way down the mountain and down the bunny slope too!  Preston and I spent some anxious minutes scanning the area near the lifts until I spotted him riding the small chairlift from the bunnyslope!  When Jeffrey got off the lift he said that he couldn't stop and had just kept going - hee hee!

After our exciting ski trip, we headed home and Jeffrey inhaled a couple cheesy roll ups for second dinner and it was time for bed.  When I tucked Jeffrey in he was crazy energetic and declared that he 'wasn't tired' and could 'RUN A MARATHON!!'  which he demonstrated while lying in his bed and energetically running his legs, flinging his blankets and stuffed animals all around.  This moment was brought to me by caffeinated PEPSI -  a very rare treat for Jeffrey that I realized is not the best choice of a dinner beverage!  Ha
