Active winter weekend

Perhaps inspired by the Oympics, we spent last weekend up north, taking advantage of some relatively "not as cold as usual" weather to try some snow sports.

Veronica went skiing for the first time:

Here she is going down the bunny hill:

She also made it up the chair lift twice for some thrilling trips down bigger hills:

It was actively snowing the whole we were there, so R and I took advantage of the situation and did some skiing ourselves. You can't even see the background because the snow was so heavy!

The above is a bit of a call back to the photo below, taken on the same hill 13 years earlier:

V also did some skating...

...while Omri climbed mountains:

Grandpa took the kids snowmobiling and pulled them behind in this sled:

Here's a moving image of that:

Arguably the best part of going outside is drinking hot chocolate when you come back in:

Playing with cousins is also fun:

And it wouldn't be a true Minnesotan weekend if you didn't cook up some fish taken from the lake just outside. The girls helped with the breading:

Thanks for having us, Grandma and Grandpa!

Working for chocolate milk

Omri assisted me at a photoshoot on Monday morning.

Here he's demonstrating what I wanted our subject to do down this aisle:

He was compensated with chocolate milk at a coffee shop afterwards:

Thanks for the help, buddy.

Here's another, simpler Cottage Cheese sketch that Veronica and I made (Omri is just off camera, eating a cookie of his own). While this may be less memorable than our previous one, you could argue it does a necessary re-centering of the series around its original style of comedy. Enjoy!
