Family Ski Trip...YIPPEE!!!

WERE HERE!!!!!! While Daddy checks in...we stretch our legs and the kids are thrilled to see snow!


All Bundled up and ready for an evening of Tubing!


Zach is so excited about Tubing!


Tubing hill...it's so much higher than this picture makes it seem!

Our Little Dare Devil!





All of us have been so looking forward to our annual ski trip! WE ARE HERE!! Although we are a little sad not to be joined this year by our great friends, we are looking forward to time alone with just our Family! After checking in and getting settled we heading out to go Tubing... A First for us all. YIPPEE! When we got there and Mady saw the tubing hill and how fast everyone was coming down the hill...she quickly changed her mind! After we already paid for her ticket...gotta love THAT!

Peter and I went skiing in Colorado(with his cousins) 11 years ago and fell in love with the sport and have truly enjoyed making it our annual winter trip! Since we want our kids to LOVE it as much as we do...we wanted this to be a FUN memory! So...we didn't force the issue and make her try it...it was our first day of many more here and we really wanted her to ski in the morning! Zach on the other hand couldn't get enough of it!!! Peter and I were both actually a little nervous ourselves...you FLY down that hill!

After 2 hours of tubing...we were ready to leave! When of course guess who now wants to try it! YUP...Mady! So, I decide to take her when we see a rider coming down the hill...he never stopped...keep going through the safety net...then down the step hill full of rocks...OUCH! Can I tell you how fast that little girl said..."That's EXACTLY why I didn't want to do it...It's dangerous"!!
