Spring Break!!

Another amazing Spring Break with our little family!!!  We left on Saturday, March 12th and drove to Pagosa Springs, CO!! For the most part, the kids were great and the trip went smooth!! Thank goodness for portable DVDs and DS's!! We drove to Mark and Dee's condo!! They had a yummy dinner of enchiladas waiting for us. It was tough to get the kids to bed cuz they were so excited to be in a new place. But we had to get up bright and early to head to Wolf Creek!!!  It was ALSO Texas's Spring Break... so we were surrounded by Texans!!!! And, unfortunately, they were all beginner skiers...so it added a bit of a tension to the whole trip!! But we still had a blast!! The kids are all amazing skiers!!!  I struggle to keep up with them all, but they are so sweet and patient with me!! Samone especially!! I even feel like she pretends to struggle a little just to make me feel better!!!  The worst part of the day was when I got totally plowed and knocked over in line by an inexperienced skier!! That SuCKED!!!

But anyhow, after our first day, we were exhausted!! We headed back to the condo and Dee had dinner waiting for us again!! What a treat!!  We showered, ate and relaxed!!!

Up early again, and off for our second day of skiing!!!! Much better day today!! We knew the slopes better and where to ski!! It was a lot of fun! This time we had dinner at a restaurant and then headed to the condo to get packed up. We decided to head to Durango in the morning to ski at Purgatory. It was tough, but we did it!!!  We were up early and on the road by 7:30am!! We arrived at Purgatory at 9am! It took us awhile to get dressed and ready, cuz the kids left pages in their PJ's!!! But this day was absolutely THE BEST!! What an AMAZING day of skiing!!!  The runs were great, the weather was great!!! I was skiing the best I have ever skied!!!

We headed back into town and had  super doper yummy dinner at STEAMWORKS!!!  Then we headed to our hotel!!!  It was late, almost 8pm!!!  So we got in our jammies and cuddled up in bed and watched Ramona and Beezus!! It was great to finally sleep in the next morning!!!

Leaving vacation is always hard!!  We had breakfast at the hotel then got ready to leave. We had to stop in downtown Durango and just walk around a bit.  Our next stop was Gallup for dinner.  Then on to home!!!!  Home Sweet Home!! Well, for a few days.... we are off to Vegas next weekend for another soccer tournament!!!
