Watch out Winter Olympics 2022

Cooper took a snowboarding lesson at Gustock this week...He's one cool kid!

"Magic Carpet, here I come!"

"Phew, we both made it."
Look at that stance, is he serious or what??

"Whoops!"
He claims to have fallen 'only twice' within the hour lesson...
I guess that's the story we're sticking to!


"I learned how to turn!" he exclaimed proudly. By the end he had the hang of it.

"And up we go again!"
He never did get to show his instructor, James, the tricks he knows
(you know, the ones he can do on the Wii), but he had a great day and a really quiet ride home!

A Bobcat with a Trophy!

Cooper officially became a Bobcat last week!

He and Shawn built a Pinewood Derby car for Sunday's Derby. Cooper looked online for car designs he liked, Shawn went into the depths of the basement and returned with a car just the right shape! Add a layer of the finest finger paint, a few stickers, and VOILA!

Here's the line up for the day....

Cooper's car came in first and second place in several different heats! Here's a picture of a close one...so close!
At the end of the day he received a 1st place trophy for his Tiger Cubs Den and his car placed 4th out of 21 in the whole Pack! Off to the Regional Derby...

Two proud boys in our house!
