Spring Break

Well, it's hard to believe that Spring Break was actually 2 WEEKS AGO!!! I need to get better about keeping up with my blog, but the busier we get and the more I have to share...well, the busier I am and the less time I have to sit and get it documented!!!!

But, our Spring Break was WONDERFUL !!!!!  We took our first family ski trip. We only went to Sunrise, just under 3 hours away, but it was a great first ski trip for our family.

We got to Show Low at about 5pm on Sunday night and had dinner in town before heading up the hill to the resort. We decided to stay at the resort because it is only about 1 mile from the ski slopes. Anywhere else is about a 20-30 minute drive. The rooms were old, tiny and worn down. But we still had a great time. We swam a little in the indoor pool before heading to bed.

Our first day of skiing started out cloudy and chilly, but it was still great. By afternoon, the clouds were gone and the sun was shining!!! The kids, and us, were loving all the runs!!! The kids just AMAZE me with their skiing!!! They are so so good! And, I must say, I was doing pretty darn good!!! I never fell and I was really getting fast!!! It was great!!!





After the first day, we just hung out at the resort. We swam for awhile, then gave the kids showers before heading to eat at the resturant at the resort. When we got back to the room we were all so exhausted that we just fell asleep.

Day 2 was AMAZING...EXHILERATING!!! Blue skies all day, great runs, perfect snow!!! We skiied 3 Black Diamonds. The kids were amazing. They went down every slope like it was a bunny slope. I did good. I got down every slope without falling and I don't think I looked too bad!!!!









After skiing this day, we drove about 20 miles to HonDah Casino to eat at their resturant.  When we got back, we took the kids swimming again before heading back to the room!!!

We left the next morning, stopping at Nonnie's on the way!! It was a great trip!!! Great Memories!!! I love my Family!!!!
