Family ski trip to Vail over President's Day weekend resulted in family fun of early mornings, busy days and early nights. These kids are pros at traveling and get better every time; carrying their own stuff and helping out and keeping the "are we there yet" questions to a minimum.
Just a few of our bags for the long weekend! When we arrived at the hotel they were surprised to see us since the Department of Transportation had shut down Vail Pass due to heavy snow and bad driving conditions. Thanks, Honey, for getting us to our destination safely! (I couldn't drive since I lost my license in Las Vegas a few weeks ago)
When we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted with root beer or regular beer, and s'mores making kits. It literally took us half of the day to get skis and boots!
So excited to see the freshly fallen snow!
Rebecca has gotten in a habit of writing "R" everywhere she goes: on paper, one the walls, bath tubs, carpets, clothes, furniture... it's kind of becoming a thing - R marks the spot.
Everyone is ready to go skiing on the first day!
