Brief Birthday Bash
It's been a quick trip, but so glad we made it. A bit of time for the boys with their Pop and their cousins. And the ability for me to celebrate my amazing sister and a dear family friend as they bring in the next decade. Socializing, laughing, and pampering made for a great event. Happy birthday Sis!

Pink Vail
What a wonderful weekend in Vail for Pink Vail (a fundraiser for a cancer center in Vail). It was definitely spring skiing and a gorgeous day to be on the slopes with great friends (and celebrate all the friends and family members that have been affected by cancer).

To cute
I put this book on T-man's bed as potential reading material tonight. He had other plans. As his teacher pointed out at parent-teacher conferences, there are spellcheckers available, but someone's true gift is their good heart and nature. T-man certainly has that down pat. To cute.

Denver Escape Room
A fun evening out with friends at the Denver Escape Room. You're given an hour to solve the puzzle and get out of the room. We made it out with 3 minutes to spare (and only two hints). The room has a 25% success rate so we were pretty happy with our escape. We hit a local pub afterwards for beer and dinner. Was a fun way to wrap up the weekend!

Best One Yet
We determined this is the 7th Karlen family vacation since grandkids entered the occasion. For those doing the math, that is more than every other year. I think we can all agree that this was an amazing trip. It was a nice balance of activities and relaxing with an amazing view and venue. It's hard to wrap up and go back to reality, but I am so thankful for the experience and the memories for the entire family.

I've Never Lost a Championship Game
These were the words uttered by D-man tonight before bed. With his basketball victory tonight, he now holds championships in football, baseball, and basketball. It was a fun game to watch - D-man shut down their star player again. Go Gladiators!!

Like No Place on Earth
Vail's slogan is "like no place on earth." That is certainly true and we were fortunate to spend a great weekend with friends and enjoying a beautiful day of skiing.

Snowboard Stud
T-man took his first snowboard lesson this weekend and loved it! His instructor said he was a great student. The first snowboard lesson means a lot of falling and it's so great to hear how excited T-man was. His statement - "I'm the first one in our family to snowboard" - says it all.
