Happy Father’s day to the best around…
I don’t know what we’d do without you but I’m certain we wouldn’t have our taxes done or the garage clean! Thanks for taking such good care of us. We’re the luckiest!!! We love you, Dad!!
Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Over Memorial Day weekend we got invited to head to the lake with some very generous friends. We had the absolute best time! The weather was perfect, we had a lobster dinner at Willow Point, the boys played golf at Wicker, the girls played tennis, and the kids tubed until they couldn’t tube anymore!
Now that is how you do the lake! We were missing Maxwell but he wasn’t missing us. He got invited to go down to 30A for the weekend and had a great time at the beach!
A great Memorial Day weekend all around!
Last day, best day! We started bright and early on another bluebird day!
Maxwell wanted to try and land a jump he had unintentionally done the day before…he gave it a good effort!
But no luck.
We then tackled some moguls…well, they tackled some!
Maxwell tried the jump one more time…and gave it a great effort…but crash.
It was a great day on the mountain! We thankfully got a few clouds in the afternoon that kept the snow from getting too slushy so we got a full day in!
That afternoon the kids went to the park area and all got some good jumps in!
This was also the first year that Spencer and Samantha skied with poles…and both of them managed to drop a pole from the lift! ha!
Thankfully both poles were fairly easily retrieved! We skied until late afternoon and made it back to the condo happy and injury free!
That night we had dinner in town at Smuggler’s at the recommendation of our friend, Ashley. It was excellent!
We had an uneventful flight home on Thursday. Thankful for an amazing week away with my favorite people!
Tuesday we got up and out the door ready for a full day!
Someone was sinking fast mid-morning but all she needed was a little snack at the top of the mountain!
The sun was shining but the snow was also pretty slushy. We all decided to skip lunch and ski until mid-afternoon and call it quits a little early. The boys went off on their own to do a few runs and head back while Robert and I took Samantha to hit up some more blues – she wasn’t ready to call it quits quite yet!
Samantha took on the moguls of the double blues with no problem! Sammy Shredder for sure!
We then headed back to the condo to meet up with the boys and headed into town for a late lunch, early dinner in Telluride. We finally got the Brown Dog Pizza we couldn’t get the other night!
We then shopped around Telluride a bit…
We then headed back to the condo where I fought off a migraine all night. No fun. A lazy end to a good day!
On Monday we were up and ready to hit the slopes!
We had another bluebird day! Sun shining, warm temps, perfect day!
Doesn’t get any better than this!
I went down a few moguls but quickly learned my knee did not like them! I was happy to take the long way around and wait for the experts at the bottom of the double blues!
We stopped in Mountain Village for lunch…
By the afternoon, the snow was slushy and the grownup legs were tired! We parked ourselves in some comfortable chairs and let the kids do a few runs on their own….
We were happy to see these three skiers come down the run!
That night we took the gondola to Allred’s for dinner…
While the view was great, the overall experience was meh.
But still a great day on the slopes!
