Tuesday was our first day on the slopes. I spent the day getting a lesson from a ski teacher which helped me a TON. It was a long day of skiing and by the time we got back to the house everyone was EXHAUSTED!
Wednesday we got up and went skiing again. However, my legs started hurting really bad (which I found out later was because of the size of my boots) so Dad and I ended up going back to the base of the mountain and hanging out at a restaurant while everyone else skied down.
Thursday I went shopping at a downtown area with Kristy, Nana, Poppy, Katelyn, and Cole. The town of Steamboat is really cute and quaint. They had a ton of cute stores all up and down this street. Then that night everyone went on a sleigh ride and had dinner. I'm not going to lie, the sleigh ride was WAYY more fun than I was expecting. It was a warm -10 degrees outside and these two giant horses pulled about 20 people in a sleigh all around this farm. Then we stopped at a little log cabin and had a great dinner, and a little concert by a local duo. Then we all bared the temperature on the sleigh back to the bus that took us home.
Friday morning I went snowmobiling with Rob, Kristy, Chris, and the kids. That was way cool because we rode through this forest that was SO pretty!! Dad and Suzanne got married! It was an awesome ceremony that I actually officiated! How cool?!
Saturday was our last full day there, so we all decided to spend the day skiing. I did way better than I expected going down the runs. My real problem was when I was standing still. I would just topple over with my skis still on. How embarrassing!! One time I even face planted it getting on to a chair lift, where the chair proceeded to stop right on top of me. That was the worst because they had to stop the whole lift just to help me up.
Sunday we headed back to Dallas. Then I came home and SLEPT!! The trip was so much fun!!
