Ski Jumping

The end of the day can get a little hectic around here. Gilly and Simon are often tired by then, but paradoxically, are wired and bouncing off the walls (literally). In the interest of maintaining sanity and keeping the kids out of the kitchen while dinner was being prepared, I played a movie to distract them. I decided to mix it up a little, so instead of Sesame Street or Angelina Ballerina, tonight's pre-dinner entertainment was a ski movie, "Anomaly" by Teton Gravity Research.

It's chock full of skiers and snowboarders jumping off cliffs, riding steep and deep slopes, and various on-snow mayhem all over the world. Not surprisingly, Gilly the wild-child LOVED it. She started jumping off the coffee table, practicing her cliff jumps . . .
