It is a rare occurrence in our house these days for someone to get a back rub from Mom. It's even rarer to get a LONG back rub, and even more rare to get an "icy hot" back rub from Mom...you really have to earn it! After Jordan's last weekend, I handed the baby over to Daddy and Jordan got a good, long, "icy hot" back rub. Here's what she did to earn it!
The last day of mid-winter break was the much anticipated snow-caving overnight excursion. I was so nervous about Jordan sleeping in a snow cave that I insisted Mike go with her. Well, I ended up getting sick so Mike had to stay home to take care of Summer. It turned out that only a couple of the kids ended up sleeping in snow caves because of how much time and effort it took to build them. So Jordan slept in a tent, but they spent hours digging snow to make 3-4 foot walls around their tent to protect it from the wind. She also had to hike up a slippery path carrying a backpack that was practically bigger than she was!! She had a ton of fun, spent all day Friday and then got back Saturday around 1pm.
Steven's Pass--So beautiful!
This is their tend insulated by snow walls!
Here's their tent after it snowed!
Look at those gigantic backpacks!!
Here's a few more of the kids that went.
At 5pm Saturday night, Jordan had to be at dress rehearsal for Inspire. Inspire is a dance show put on by Jordan's dance studio for the upper level dancers. They have guest choreographers come in and teach the girls some pretty fun and advanced dances. Jordan was in three dances. After 2 hours of dress rehearsal, they had a 30 min. break and then it was time for the 90 min. show. The show was fantastic, but the first words out of Jordan's mouth when it was over was "I am so tired."
After the show...
What a fantastically fun, yet exhausting weekend!!
Definitely needed to end with some icy hot and a good rub down:)
