After finishing a marathon at his school the day before Noah ran another race today to raise money for Africa - a 'short' 6k race but he told Kelly in the morning he was going to win... and he did beating out a 21 year old.

We had a birthday dinner for Hunter the evening before and donuts the morning of the 3rd.
Holly’s big fluffy hair is cute but needs maintenance. Since she has never been groomed we were noticing a lot of matted fur so wanted to take her in to the groomer. Turns out the matting was worse than we thought and the only solution is to trim lower than the matting. The groomer said the fur came off like sheep’s wool. Also the matting actually causes bruising because it pulls on her skin so she needed a reset. The groomer said she would not go short like this again but we have to go for regular grooming so that her hair doesn't matte again like that. She went from fluff dog to naked dog.
This weekend, as an early celebration of his 14th birthday with his friends, we did a ski day up at Mt Bachelor. The snow conditions this spring are amazing. The coverage of snow is incredible considering its almost May. Kelly packed us an amazing lunch that we ate in the parking lot for lunch. After skiing we stopped in town for pizza. If you are trying to pick out Hunter and Noah - Noah has the bright green pants and the blue jacket on skis. Hunter is in all black with a grey helmet on a snowboard.
