a new adventure

last week Brooks had a fun new adventure at Gymboree - he loved it! 
while the weather is snowy and cold outside, we will be playing at gymboree. 

back on the slopes after nearly 2 years!

finally, some great pics from our fun ski trip in january!  mom and phil took us to breckenridge for five days, and we invited great friends to join us for the trip.  Amy & John flew in from Ohio for the vacation, and we had so much fun seeing them and getting to know John better.  (side note:  amy & john just got engaged in december too!) 

Mom & I at Breckenridge - we had the most beautiful weather all three ski days. 

January skiing isn't always so great.

Richard, me & Amy skiing Loveland on day one. 

Amy & I on Peak 7 at Breckenridge - we were tearing it up!

Phil & Paula at Breckenridge - Day 2.  What a cute skiing couple!

Amy & John at the top of Loveland pass - 11,990 ft!  brrrrrr

While Brooks didn't get to do any skiing, he had a great time at the house with lots of playtime with nana and daddy. 

Thanks nana & grandpa phil for a great vacation!  We already can't wait until next year!

Olympic Fever

I don't know about anyone else, but the Fuquays have Winter Olympic fever and we've got it bad!  (or good, depending on how you look at it!)

In our American/Canadian household, we are having fun cheering for both teams (as least I am, not sure about Richard).  Watching the Canadian mogle skier win the first home gold the other night was spectacular!

Last night, we got together with friends for an Olympic/Fat Tuesday/Valentine's party, and Brooks and I decided we should go as team Canada (richard had to work).

Here is our yummy dessert!

and this morning, Brooks was still wearing his maple leaf shirt so we thought we should get some more pics.

Here is Brooks preparing for his first winter Olympic sport...standing in snow!

Our future Olympian!

(but not in luge, hockey, skeleton, or any dangerous winter olympic sport - we may have ruled them all out!)
