What a weekend

This weekend we went to Beaver Creek to go cheer on my brother, Marco Sullivan, (and the rest of the U.S. Ski Team) at the Birds of Prey Downhill and Super G races. I think our crew may have made an impression...

Here is a pic of some of the fan club waiting in the finish for the downhill race to begin, which it never did. Unfortunately, it ended up being canceled due to wind.

All the rest of these photos were found on UniversalSports.com

Marco doing interviews in the finish.

Goodbye Santa Barbara!

It was awesome...

like always.

And now we are off again...

Beaverfest here we come! Can't wait for the most fun event of the year with all my favorite people....yay!!!
Go Marco!

Turkey Time

Love love love some beach time!

Early morning view of the slough in the front of the beach house, full of water at high tide. This was obviously Trevor taking the pic, up at the crack of dawn to go golfing.

Meanwhile, I was catching up on my beauty sleep.

Luckily, there are always a ton of toys laying around, so Trev and I grabbed some bikes and cruised!

Another beautiful sunset from the back deck, can never get enough of these.

Some warmth and beauty.

Turkey time! Close to 40 people came to the Beach House for Thanksgiving this year, so they fired up the grills and BBQ'd 5 turkeys!

Me and Diego and the birds.

A little shot of the madness (and the goodness!) that makes up the wonderful Robinson Thanksgiving...both of which I am thankful for.

After dinner and some salsa dancing in the living room, we got a special treat...Rob showing off his trademark wrestling moves, this one in particular being his favorite, of which he has named the "Scrotum Grab". I'm sorry.

Every year all the guys (and sometimes a girl or two) have an annual golf tournament the day after Thanksgiving with the VERY LUCKY winner getting to take home the Ugly Monkey! This year Trev's Uncle Tim barely beat him out for the win, thank god we don't have to take that thing home! Enjoy the new mantle ornament Tim.

Max Norris...a future monkey winner for sure.

Oh and Trevor also got a double eagle a rare feat, I guess, that he is really excited about. He looked it up on the internet and apparently the odds of getting a score of 2 on a par 5 hole are over one in a million!!! I just told him that he is one in a million. : )

Santa Barbara baby!

We just got back to our snowy home sweet home last night, but wanted to share some more vacation pix!

Saying goodbye in San Diego and off to the Beach House! Gotta love Grandpa Jim!

We took the train from San Diego to Santa Barbara, skipped all the traffic and got these amazing views the whole way!

Hello Beach House!!!!

Santa Barbara Corona commercial?

Jumping for joy! And yes, it actually was pretty chilly in the evenings!

Me and Rob loving it up!

Can never get enough of it, just trying to soak it all in!

Trev and Rob with a beach to themselves.

From Snow to So Cal

Saturday morning in Jackson with a few inches of snow on the wings and the runway, luckily we were able to get out just in time before the real snow storm hit!

And we made it to a rainy San Diego where we are staying with Trev's grandparents in their retirement community.

Since we had a little rain, Grannie De took us to their Fitness Room and we all did a little workout...Grannie De showing us up at 89!

We also met a friend of theirs, Richard, who came in to the gym (walking right along without a walker or cane or anything!) for his daily bike ride and can you believe it...he will be 102 in April!!! We talked to him for awhile and he was amazing to say the least! We asked him what his tricks were and he said ... exercise and a martini every day!

Trev managed to squeeze in 18 holes of golf with my bud George today. He fly's F-18 fighter jets and is based down here in San Diego. He is an instructor for Marines (although he is in the Navy) learning to fly F-18.

After golf, George gave me a tour of what a "usual" work day looks like for him. You know, flying 1,000 mph, live ammunition, and getting saluted by others that he outranks left, right, and center. It was awesome seeing these machines up close and personal.

So Cal Bound..

We head out at 0' Dark thirty tomorrow morn to get 10 days of this......!

and this....

and lots of that.......

One Long Day

We had one long day on Sunday, as Trevor does every year, we decided to go over and help a local telemark binding company, 22 Designs, assemble bindings. The deal is if you do 10 hours of work you get a pair of bindings.

They make the best bindings on the market and they are local, can't get better than that!

We were originally planning on splitting up our work hours, but once we were there we went for the full 10 hours and man was it tiring. My poor little fingers were black and sore!

The whole operation takes place in these guys garage.

Trevor, happy the day is almost over.

The finished product, we basically helped with every step, assembling all the million pieces to finally get to this finished product. I don't think I will ever look at my tele bindings the same again!
