Our church has an annual Family Ski Trip during spring break. Being new to the church and having some encouragement from some friends that were going, we decided to go too! We went to Crested Butte CO. We took a charter bus with 64 other people up there! 14 hours!!! Talk about a long trip! (I actually learned to ski at Crested Butte back in 1994! Dan and I took a trip up there to SKI FREE! It was great getting to go back!! God is Good!!)
The boys took a one day snowboarding lesson to refresh their memory and the next two days we skied together as a family.
There was alot of this...
and a lot of this...Zach is a great snowboarder!
While the boys were in ski lessons, Dan took the opportunity to ski with some of the men and do some extreme skiing. They had a blast!!! Here is Dan with Spencer, our friend and Sunday School teacher.
Here is Spencer and part of his family. Their son Conner loved hanging with the boys and they have an adopted daughter from China who is 3 and she stayed home with her Granny. She still takes naps and didn't want to come! We all fell in love with Sierra, pictured below.
While Dan skied with the men, I skied with Cary. We had a blast!! It was definitely 'Spring' skiing. We didn't need our heavy coats! It was HOT out there. We even saw a guy sunbathing at one of the lodges! Okay, maybe that was a little extreme... ha ha
There were dogs inside a lot of the shops! And of course Drew pet everyone of them. ♥
Drew really took to snowboarding. He had no fear and wanted to go everywhere! Dan took him out and they did some exploring! Drew is looking good!!!
Dan found some paths through the trees that were made for kids. They were cut alittle wider.

Boys and video games made the bus trip complete! ha
Sadly, the trip had to come to an end. Here we are packing up the bus to head home.
We had a great time and thank God for new friendships for all of us and great memories!
