Learning to ski

One of my favorite shots as they learned to ski.

And a few short hours they are going up the mountain and getting off the lifts!

Tubing



On our last day, it was snowing (as you can see in the gray/white cast photos). We chose not to ski and went tubing instead. It's hard to capture how much fun it is to sit in a tube and go down the mountain completely out of control. We were glad we didn't go skiing 'cause we got REALLY cold while tubing--super fun though! (We were lucky that it didn't snow and was beautiful 30s-40s while we skied.)

Riding from the parking lot to the ski slopes

Sledding

Our very first day in Winter Park (only a half day so we hung out, rented skis, and sledded!) It had just snowed.  It was very cold this day (high about 18).

Learning to ski

The beginning of Day 1. They strap on a gps device to track (and not lose) kids.




About 20 minutes into Day 1.

End of Day 1.

Awesome ski trip!

More pictures soon! Winter Park, Colorado is a great place to ski!


These photo were taken 2/18. The weather was perfect! It was in the high 30s the whole time we skied.

A very enthusiastic monkey

She was bargaining that she'd pose for the camera so I'd buy her an ice cream. (I didn't 'cause we were heading for dinner.)

Silly monkey

See, everything had to be climbed.

4 monkeys in a tree

We went downtown with my friend KJ (in town from afar) and her son, and the kids found every possible thing to climb on. Seriously. Walking took a long time.

Field trip (2)

Trying to pet the batray. They were all successful.  Only a few sleeves got wet.
