a life perfect

Life is incredibly busy these days. The quarter ended with a bang and before I knew it I had 120 finals and 12 papers to grade and final grades to submit. I picked up my sis-in-law, Cindy, and mom-in-law from the airport and we all headed up to the mountains for some spring skiing.

You read that right. Double black and we're not scared. It was a win-win situation to say the least. Albert's mom got some alone time with Abby...

while Albert, Cindy and I hit the slopes. See here how Albert and Cindy enjoyed the scenery...

The snow was slushy but we had 2 great days of skiing and it was wonderful to see family and have them see Abby. When we got home, we went on a bike ride through Palo Alto and I had yet another moment where I just felt a lot of love from Abby:

Your daughter is SO DANG CUTE I want to squish her. That being said, it was nice to get your note after I had the baby. You guys seem to be doing great. Good luck on your new endeavor... sounds professional and exciting! You know that Jared is in PE as well right? His is fund of funds. Any who... take care.
