skiing Steamboat 2009

Peyton and Kelsey at the top of the gondola in beautiful Steamboat.

We just got back from our ski trip in Steamboat. We stayed with our friends Kim and Jason who have two girls, so the kids had a blast even when they weren't skiing.


Peyton skied one day and snowboarded one day, he did great both days.


Kelsey skied one day and planned to take snowboard lessons on the second day, but woke up with a fever and had to stay home (but I got my money back...yeah!).


Dani skied 2 days, and even took a nap after lunch on the second day she was so worn out!


I, on the other hand, skied one day and for some reason thought I'd try snowboarding the second day. I fell more on my first run than I have in the last 10 years of skiing (I am not kidding!). Even Peyton was waiting for me at the end of each run... and usually I'm the first one down taking pictures of everyone coming down! Thank goodness no one takes pictures but me!


Todd did great until Peyton talked him into cutting through the trees for those fun jumps, great pics below of that!

Peyton getting a little air!


Peyton going down West Side (a black run), and doing great.



Kelsey going down Why Not, a green trail that every young skier in Steamboat loves (and parents can't stand... I remember torturing my dad by going down it!)






Dani showing off her "pizza" stop.


Dani after lessons eating her giant chocolate muffin while on a gondola ride.




Todd thinking about it...

Uh oh!!

Maybe that wasn't such a good idea!
