Ski Season | 2012-13

This year we decided to bite the bullet and buy season passes for Jason and Ethan and it was the best and dumbest decision we made this year. The best because they boys had so much fun and went up every opportunity they could. It was the dumbest decision because we should have bought passes for all of us! The rest of us made it up a few times but we wanted to go up just as much as the boys. Especially Audrey!...she is a skiing machine.

All of these pictures were taken with either our GoPro2 or my cell phone. I gotta say... I loooove our GoPro. You can take the coolest shots with that thing. Jason loved to just attach it to his ski pole and get cool shots. Some of these pictures were actually taken from video stills. They aren't the best quality, but I still love them.

Ethan is a dang good skier. He easily keeps up with dad and he may possibly be even better than me. Shhh... don't tell him I said that.

Audrey worked her butt of this season and got so much better! She is really good now and can handle most any hill at her own pace. She is the crazy one of the bunch and even if we get up to the slopes right at opening, she will ski until closing, from 9am to 10pm! Craaaaazy. The first time up she made me ski for so long that one of my toenails turned purple. (I think I need new boots.)

Dad decided since he and Ethan get to go up so much that he and Audrey should have a daddy daughter ski date too. He took a day off of work and let Audrey play hookey at school and they had a blast!

There's always time to play in the snow too!

One evening after work and school we went skiing with the family. David did so good. He just zips down that mountain so fast. He freaks all of us out a little. He hasn't mastered the snow plow so when he wants to stops, he turns so that he skis back up hill. Luckily, for my sanity, he started figuring out how to slow down by doing the "pizza slice". Crazy boy!

We have definately learned our lesson and next year we will be buying everyone a season's pass! It is such a fun family activity and I am so excited that everyone loves it so much!
