White Weekend

Many weekends this winter, like the previous two winters, Jordan and Rio have gone skiing. Rio started as a timid little girl and she has blossomed into a fearless athlete. She and daddy love their weekends away together, but this time mama and the boys decided to come along.

It was an amazing weekend of snow and fun. So much so that I'm too tired to write a post about it, so instead will just leave you with photos.

Snowy stroll

Loving life up on his perch...

...and loving life on his sled.

Beautiful girl, beautiful view

Ready for tubing (he went with me in the tube, don't worry!)

Night tubing, family style

A perk of your grampa being a mountain director: you get to sit on a snowmobile...

....and pretend to drive a snow cat....

...and if you're a big kid you get to actually drive a snowmobile!

x-country skiing for the grown ups

One of us didn't expect it to be that hard. Can you tell who?!

Great weekend. Great family. Great fun. I've almost been convinced to get back on my snowboard or try downhill skiing. We'll see?! Don't hold your breath. The steeper-than-I-anticipated downhills on x-country trails were enough for this trip!
