Our first adventure took us to Buttermilk where the big kids to skied (Savannah, Ella, and Burton) and I hung out at the bottom of the mountain with the babies (George and Archer). Burton hung out with us for a bit while waiting for his turn to ski.
Savannah was frustrated that she was not an instant pro at sking. To make matters worse, her little cousin Ella was a pro zipping down the mountain. However Ella lives across the street from Buttermilk and has been taking weekly ski lessons and that was difficult for Savannah to understand. I am hoping to get Savannah into a ski class of her own next time.
Post-sking is a good time to do yoga with your Grandma. The babies were cracking me up as they joined in.

Next Savannah tried rock climbing and was equally frustrated. You would not believe how high Ella can go. After watching Ella, Savannah thought it would be easy and was again dissapointed. But since we have been home she has talked about it a lot and I think she is ready to try it again. Humbling experiences are good and she is learning that she can't be the best at everything.
Savannah was more than excited to go swimming a few times over the week (because she is good at that). Arch however was not too sure about it at first. Once we found a peacfull cove in the lazy river he settled in and even enjoyed himself.
Per Savannah sledding was her favorite.
The trip ended by Grnadma and I taking all 5 kids back to Texas with us. But before we left Colorado we spent the afternoon with my grandparents. The kids would have liked to have had more time. At least summer is just around the corner!
