We took Deanna and Madoc up to the condo with us Thursday night for a quick ski trip. Deanna wanted to try out Brundage, since I talk it up all the time.
In order to save time the next morning we all slept on top of the beds with layers of blankets on top. Lily got especially cozy with several layers of blankets and her fuzzy jacket.
We woke up to lots of fresh powder and Lily realizing that she had forgotten her snow pants🤦♀️. Miraculously, (not kidding here it is truly miraculous) she found a pair that fit her in the condo. They were torn at the waist but she was able to keep them on and my cold prone little one didn't freeze on the ski hill.
We has a gorgeous day, not too cold, too foggy or too snowy for most of the day although we did have three to four inches of powder on top of the groomed trails which made things a little trick but we managed.
We were all ready for our lunch break and ate through four orders of fries.
We had fun with our new ski buddies.
Since I'm not the best powder skier I did have on big wipe out which with all the powder wouldn't have hurt much except that I landed on my ski pole handle which left quite a mark on my arm. We headed home straight from the hill all quite worn out.
Valentines' Day the girls and I grabbed a couple friends and drove up to Tamarack for a day on the slopes. The drive there was heinous taking nearly three hours due to a truck jackknifing on the road stopping traffic for 20ish minutes and slushy roads. We had one little worrisome slide but regained control and made it to the hill safely.
Kate, Kendall, and Emmy on the chair in front.
The ride home was pretty stressful again with some serious blizzarding hitting us just before we reached Boise but we made it home and I was thankful for the hot bath afterwards. Hoping I don't have any more snowy mountain driving this year. It was a great ski year.
