Fun on the Slopes!

At the end of January, we took an overnight family ski trip to Northern Idaho.  Mike and I had been wanting to ski at Schweitzer for a long time, and we finally made it happen.  We decided to stay right at the resort since we were bringing K-Man (and the world's best babysitter, Samm) so that we would be able to eat lunch together and check in from time to time.  It was our first time ever staying right at a ski resort where we could essentially ski in and out of the hotel.  It was so much fun!  The resort was basically a little village with shops and restaurants in addition to the lodges.  Samm was able to take K-Man to the free movie theater at the lodge and play games and stuff while we were out skiing and boarding.

Our first time skiing somewhere that we had to use a T-bar.  Only one of us (who shall remain nameless) fell during the ride and had to hike the rest of the way up the hill.  Haha, good times!

Samm decided to give skiing a try, so we switched some coats around and made it happen.



The magic carpet gets two thumbs up



K-Man thought it was hilarious when Mike would throw a handful of snow up into the air.

We LOVE our winter sports!
