2015

Well half way through January and finally we had snow.  I have started working as a Chalet Maid and I hate it.  It's good to have work though, but cleaning other peoples toilets is really not my cup of tea.   I seem to be good at it though as I now have 4 chalets and one apartment on my books.  It's well paid and very flexible with some of the owners coming only in the holidays so it works for now.

The snow was so late this year, nothing in December with tourists being very grumpy and taking it out on the locals.  Samuel has started snowboard though and for a child with many many problems I am so proud of him.  He has stuck this out, which is really not easy in the beginning but has now hit the bigger slopes.  Of course it means me standing for hours on a freezing slope but that's what parents are for right.

This was our Christmas day......

 My gift.....baby sitting my niece Ella

Our dessert from the bakery, such cute Christmas logs

Benjamin took the photo.  We had burnt lamb, I forgot how time consuming looking after a newborn is.  Need to practice my multi-tasking a bit more.

SNOW FUN......

 Yoonering again, this is so fun and you don't need to know how to ski.

The kids tried out their hand at trick surf.

FUN IN THE WOODS..........

And then in February all the snow seemed to come in a week..............

So now we have February sunshine which is nice, it hasn't been the easiest of seasons this year, very cold, rain, not much snow to start but every year is different which is nice.
