El Paso, TX

El Paso, TX has never been on my list of places to visit but now that the Karhan Clan has made the move, we made the trip.  The girls and I headed down for a week.  The kids all had so much fun playing together.  We don’t see our cousins often enough with them living so far away.  We definitely enjoyed the sunny weather and spent lots of time at the park, visited the zoo, and just played outside in the yard and sandbox.

Magic Carpet Ride

The girls have been going to ski school for a couple weeks.  They have moved on to the magic carpet and bunny hill.  Emma is doing great and seems to really enjoy skiing.  Madi is taking her time to figure it all out.  She will get there in her own time as she always does.  They both have made big strides since we started.
