Easter Ski Trip

So, its been a bit since I posted last.... Man, Easter sure was early this year. We had planned a spring ski trip with Steve, Susan and kids over a long Easter weekend. We went to their favorite stomping ground, Schweitzer Ski Resort, near Sandpoint, Idaho. We skiied Saturday, Monday and Tuesday. I discovered that 2 days of skiing is enough for my out of shape body, but the kids and Paul could have kept on going for days more! There are more pictures coming from Steve and Susan and from our big camera, but here are some that we took with Paul's camera:


At the base of the mountain. This place was beautiful. We were blessed with beautiful weather for all our skiing days.


Brianna and Aaron on the lift. Not sure why Aaron does that cheesy grin thing. It kinda bugs!


Kenzie and Rachel heading up the lift from the easy hill.

Amy and Aaron on their way up too!

Ok, our condo was the top middle unit in this complex. The one with where the peak is in the middle. That peak was to the loft where a couple of the kids slept. Steve and Susan were on the same floor at the end - the unit on the top all the way to the right.

This is a view from that loft looking out at our amazing view! The lake you see in the distance is Lake Pend Orielle in Sandpoint, Idaho.

Paul, Brianna, Aaron, Alise, Steve, Sydney, Kailey, Rachel, Susan, Carly, Amy and Kenzie from the top. That's Lake Pend Orielle in the background. This picture is more for the view. Breathtaking, huh?

Just our family in the same spot without the goggles.

The Abominable Snowmoms (Susan and Amy) - the wind was blowing and we didn't wanna be cold! Moms are cranky when they're cold!

More pics and video will be coming. Just wanted to get these up while I had a moment.
