high altitude fun

We had quite the day! Campbell & Ian were little two miniature pros... they even road the lifts by themselves... trying to leave us at every opportunity! Riley on the other hand... did not want to ski! She was happy go lucky in the beginning... was all about the cute boots... but just did not like the sliding sensation under her feet... oh well... what do you do! At the end of the day she said "I'm ready to ski now"! Ha! She'll have to wait til next time!

It was just like old times skiing with my sister... really great... we were really goofy! Our bodies definitely hurt more... my knees... now I get what my parents meant! It does get a bit harder on the 'ol bod! Sore muscles & all... it was the best day ever! Another special time to add to my fond memory bank!

This visit with them was very special... a true gift... reminds just how lucky I am to have such a super sis! She's the best! The miles may be long between us but our bond lives always in our hearts!

If I looked as cute as Riley does I'd hang out in the lounge all day too. I know how she feels though...I don't like not having control on the ice/snow. It does feel weird. Campbell and Ian look so cute together - and they seem so BRAVE! I was brave as a kid...now I'm a fraidy cat.

So glad you and your sis had a wonderful time - You both deserve it.

I can't wait to see your post for Easter...I bet you'll have all sorts of crafty eggs and pretty colors.

This looks so fun it makes even a non-skier, non-snow lover like me, wish I was there. Glad you enjoyed it and I understand completely this bond you have with your sister. It sounds a lot like the one I share with mine.

my sister and i were just talking today about our ski trips we took when we were kids. we went with our uncle and cousins and not our parents. it was funny to tell our mom "yeah...he just told us to go slow and snow plow with our ski's and we were on own all day" we really were. it wouldn't be like that now!
very fun memories for your family too!
