The whole family cruised north for one final ski trip of the season, this time to Northstar. Three Wiktors were very excited to hit the slopes, and one Wiktor was looking forward to a few days of rest and relaxation. Binge watching Ted Lasso and working on a 1,000 piece puzzle – sign me up!…
Ski Season (again)
What’s better than one ski trip? Two. Duh. We threw a couple of date blocks on the calendar earlier in the year and this one didn’t end up working out for a family trip… but it still worked out for a quick Dad trip back to the slopes. This time it was to Kirkwood which…
Ski Season
Ski season is officially upon us. With an impending move sometime this summer, it is max time on the slopes while they’re still close. Dear friends of ours invited us up to Mammoth Lakes for the MLK weekend and the kids (and dad) got to strap the planks on for a few days. Absolutely perfect…
Merry Moments
As if our Thanksgiving travels weren’t busy enough, December was a whirlwind. Despite the busy weeks leading up to another round of traveling, we fully enjoyed each moment of the holiday season. Sophia and I were thrilled to resume our annual Nutcracker tradition. Despite the masks and a mishap with the Cavalier during the pas…
Gobble, Gobble
It seems strangely misleading to say we had a calm and relaxing Thanksgiving this year but we really did. Sure we flew 2000+ miles to DCA and then spent the next ten days driving another 700+ miles as we visited family and friends but really, it was just awesome and relaxing! After arriving in DC,…
Out East

After being about 100 miles west on Monday, it was somewhat funny we ended up almost exactly 100 miles east in Anza-Borrego on Saturday. This time it was the…
Racing to another birthday – Will turns 9
Will turned nine! I’m not really sure how we made it to nine already (I mean, it’s half way to 18!!!) but here we are. He is adventurous, curious, and has such a big heart. He loves being around people, young and old, and will talk anyone’s ear off. His second grade teacher hit the…

This could be something in the making…
Leaving the Lower 48
It started as a joke about saving $14 per plane ticket and ended up being one heck of an adventure. Six months ago we were looking for a vacation spot to link up with Dad and Elaine and we decided to look for something more outdoorsy not knowing what the ‘Rona would allow for. We…
