Spring Break 2016
Royce broke free from work for a few days and we were able to go skiing with all four kids! A friend had recommended Granby to us and oh my it was the best recommendation ever. So family friendly and the best place on earth for these kids to build their confidence.
Speaking of confidence.....this guy, Mr. Isaac, grew leaps and bounds on the ski slopes this year. He didn't have any intentions of letting go of Granddad's hand while skiing but by the end of the first half-day he was taking the little lift on his own. In true Isaac fashion, he did his best when nobody was watching (or so he thought...we could see his progress from a mile away). But it was on his terms, just like he's learned to ride his bike, tie his shoes, etc.
And the girls? Our three girls are going to ROCK at skiing.
One of my favorite pictures. This sums up Royce and Amelia pretty well.
She is a daddy's girl through to her core.
No joke. When the girls were tired they would lay down like this to rest. Hey, skis are heavy!
We were happy Granddad could join us for one night of our trip! The extra set of eyes and hands were appreciated plus I know he loved seeing the kids progress as well.
Amelia's turn to rest. It was just the funniest thing!
And here's crash!
Not really. Chloe is actually a pretty darn good skier and I love that she takes risks on the slopes with trying new turns and maneuvers. She's going to be a force to be reckoned with one day!
Amelia and Caroline did amazing for their first times. Amelia was a little more hesitant than Caroline, but that's okay. Once she got her groove she was able to let go as well.
It would be physically impossible for Royce and I to be any more proud of these kids.
At the end of day two it was snowing and we decided to hit the pool at the lodge. The kids had a blast swimming in the pool and catching snowflakes.
Inn at Silver Creek....until we meet again!
