wiiiiiinnnnndddddddyyyyyyy.......

As expected we arrived at Eldora this morning to help out with another FIS race and guess, what?!?! IT WAS WINDY AND COLD!!!! Duh (hehe)!!! Eldora wouldn't be Eldora without the wind and cold so we come prepared. We stood at the start till about 11am till the race was finally called. So instead of saying "racer ready go" 400 times today I get to say it 800 times tomorrow!! Yup that's right, we are going to try at get off two races tomorrow for men and women...this should be fun! :)

You can't really tell from this picture but we had 90mph gusts where we were standing! Luckily we could huddle in the start house (fondly named Casa de Rokos) till it was time to pack it up and head down the hill.

We headed straight up to the little bar for some food, beers and bloody's with great friends! Woo hoo!

Right as Troy was about to shoot off a picture we got a call from Jordan!! Woot! She raced today at Burke and ended up 6th!! Woooo WAY TO GO JORDAN!!! Missing both Taylor and Jordan and sending so much love their way!

Some of our FAVORITE peeps. Nate and Elizabeth, a big part of the Eldora family!

As always, Stella was having a miserable time! Ha! Loving this little one.....she braved the cold and wind all afternoon to train with her team, smiles and all!

Ready to do it all again tomorrow!

So much love and gratitude.....

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

break #1....

Six weeks.....that's how long she has to have this thing on. It didn't happen playing pond hockey, it didn't happen skiing, it happen tripping down the sidewalk. I mean....REALLY!?!?! Much Love!

vegas....

This week has been INSANE! We are in the process of getting ready for one of our largest shows in Vegas that the boys leave for on Saturday. It's one of two shows that we do where we get to put our best foot forward and amaze all the buyers for all the boutiques that we sell to. So we have to get it right. With all the new samples that we have been getting from Peru, having to choose a new line has been tough, too many amazing choices to choose from! Scary, but this is an alpaca sweater that we produced in the 80's and I just happend upon it while digging around in the warehouse the other day. Trust me we've had a HUGE evolution in our sweaters since then! Still fun to see! Our new line of cottons. We've got two racks that we are sifting through to find the top 30! On another note, check out Stella and my dad at the top of Hood with some of the CU kids. She sounds like she's having a blast! Missing her a bunch but we get to see her on Saturday. ...
