Elspeth acutally made it to Club comp this year – no concussions, and she had a great time. Here is her experience in pictures. Oh, and the headband was in her loot bag.
While we were at Club Comp, Glenn and Katrine were at the COS StarSkate championships. Katrine popped out a jumbo double salchow at the start of her program and couldn’t hold the landing. That threw her off for the rest of the program. Nevertheless, we are proud of her 10th place finish in her flight.
When she and Glenn got home, we all climbed into the car and headed up to my parents. We spent yesterday introducing the cousins to the joys of cross country skiing. Elspeth did much better but became frustrated that she still couln’t keep up. We may need to look into another option that will allow us to ski as a family.
The kids also enjoyed the huge mounds of snow at my parents. They had a blast on their tobboggans and the weather was mild enough that the grown ups weren’t freezing.
Elspeth really wanted to climb this snowbank.
Elspeth thought this was a great lark. Kept asking her uncle to dump her. Good thing that the snow was nice and soft.
