Over the Mountains and Through the Woods!

Over the mountains and through the woods is how our family spent this past weekend. We were blessed to be able to stay at the Burms condo for several days this past Friday through Tuesday. We spent our weekend with dear friends who have two little boys which brought our grand total to nine people in a small two-bedroom condo. We shared some fun, fun moments but we also shared some stressful, chaotic moments. It is a weekend that I will treasure for years to come as we did some pretty cool stuff.

Our first day in Winter Park we headed to the tubing hill in Frasher. Total BLAST!!! If you have never been put this on your 'must do' list for the near future. The amount of speed one reaches while flying down the hill has to be illegal!! Traeton had his own tube but Addison and Elias had to ride in our laps because they were too young to fly by themselves.

The next two days the children spent in ski/snowboard school. Traeton has been asking to learn how to snowboard so we thought, 'hey, why not' and signed him up. He took to it very well which should be no surprise since he is a great skateboarder. Addison didn't fare so well, she made it very clear to all of us that she does NOT like skiing and had no interest in hitting the slopes again. She spent the next day in the condo with the baby boys. Hopefully someday she'll learn to like it because I am certain as soon as Elias is old enough to put some boards on his feet he'll never look back. She might be pretty lonely in the lodge all by herself.
