2019 March DITL: A Sunny Skiing Day at Snow Ridge


We spent the morning skiing with the big boys and the afternoon having fun with family! A great March day.


First things first-- breakfast

And play with all the cool toys at the grandparents' house

A quick roll of Pass the Pigs before...

... we hit the road, headed to Snow Ridge!

Donuts as a mid-morning snack

And then we get our tickets and rentals

Trying on ski boots is hard work

All suited up and ready to hit the hill!

L needs a little help getting his skis on

Check these boys out!

So awesome

One ride up the lift with L (7 years old)...

... and another ride with B (9 years old)!

It's a beautiful day-- 30+ degrees and sunny, but the wind is gusting and bitterly cold

That doesn't stop the boys from having tons of fun!

There's a brief moment where a ski comes off, but that's quickly fixed and he's back to tearing down the slopes

Before long, both boys beg to ride the lift independently, so I stand in the sun and shout at them as they ride up the mountain

So grown up


Making careful and beautiful turns

After a long morning of skiing (where we had the whole hill to ourselves), we head inside to warm up

There's hot cocoa and PBJ sandwiches and two very happy boys

Heading home!

We all fall asleep

And this lady has been (not so) patiently waiting for us to return

Set up bread dough in the mixer

J makes grilled cheese sandwiches as a 2nd lunch

Upstairs for diaper changes and nap time

CC practices standing with the radiator


 
She gets herself into very interesting locations

Boys (who have changed into pajamas) set the table for dinner

Preparing for the littles to join us-- the PDR makes the best booster seat

Dessert is an ooey, gooey chocolate caramel torte!

It's plate-licking good!

We measure how much the boys have grown using Nana as a reference

CC flies!

G-Nana and Jamie play cars

Everyone heads to bed early after a long, fun day! 
See you in April, DITL!
