Fun in the Mountains

We had fun over spring break in Colorado. Sadly, most of our pictures of this week got lost somewhere between the camera and computer. Trust me, lots of them were super cute!

The weather was AMAZING while we were there. Both of the days we skied it was over 50 at the base of the mountain and about 45 on top with lots of sunshine. And, to top it off, we didn't wait in a single lift line EVER!

Here are the kids jumping on the trampoline. Kids in puffy snow suits are so cute!

Here are the few skiing pics we still have. Annalise was awesome! The first day they did the "magic carpet" which is like an uphill escalator. Noah was not coordinated enough to be able to ski down by himself but enjoyed skiing under our legs.

These were the TINIEST skis and boots I've ever seen! So darling!!!

Annalise riding the Magic Carpet. She was a pro!

Annalise figured it out quickly and LOVED it. Things took a turn for the worse on day 2. We took Annalise up on the gondola. The runs underneath it looked SO flat and easy. She insisted that we could NOT help her so things didn't go well. She pointed her tiny little, parallel skis down hill and went for it. She was going so fast and had some big wipeouts! We finally got to the bottom and decided we should give it one more try. Annalise was not a happy camper and screamed a lot of the way down in between her wipeouts. It ended with my Dad skiing down with her under his arm. We now know why ski school is so expensive. Lesson learned!
