FUN IN THE SUN! (OK, it's not the beach but we will take a Track Meet on a sunny day any time!)

Brian, as a Senior in Highschool this year, is participating in track for the first time and loving it. (On a side note, Don is so proud, being the track star that he was in highschool!) After two track meets Brian is finding that running the 200 meters works best for him. He competes in the 200 and 100 meter relays also.
Checking those cleats!
The handoffs with baton were perfect!
Run, Brian! (He's in the blue and black.) They actually have finished first with this relay team in both meets! Happy, sunny day!

SPRING HAS SPRUNG!! (At least it is in process!)

Just a few signs that Spring is on its way to North Idaho! Our daffodils are courageously making an entrance even with some lingering snow on the ground!
Family Home Evening dessert is a yummy peach and raspberry crisp (usually a summer dessert!) Of course, it snowed during the night after these pictures were taken, but we are still hopeful! Happy Spring! Love, the Duffy's

Schweitzer Overnighter! (Taking positive advantage of "OLD MAN WINTER")

A Room With A View!
Brian (in his own words) "skiied his guts out"!
Shaun relaxing! (Skiing is still, unfortunately, on hold for him because of knee surgery.)
More relaxing! Good old-fashioned nap!
Carmen hung out in the hot tub! A bad case of Bronchitis kept her off the ski hill this weekend.
Brian met up and skiied with good friends!
Lunch Break with Tyler and Sam!
Carmen didn't mind lounging "away" the weekend in her pajamas! More hot tubbing! (After a hard day of skiing for Don and Brian!) This was Carmen's fourth time this day in the hot tub! Life is so rough!Finishing up the night with a good game of "Scum"! Shaun won this round, and Carmen wants everyone to know that she was a 'close' second! Making family memories!
