Winter Park








This morning was beautiful! It was really sweet to see the mountains as we stepped out of church. We all went to eat lunch together at K-Bobs. Boy, was it good! Then we went back to the house and put on all the snow stuff. Today we were going to Winter Park.

Winter Park was a snow play area for tubing! We had so much fun! We started in our own individual tubes first. Then once we tried all the runs we switched it up a bit. JD and Derek went head first. Aaron went flying so fast he couldn't stop and almost went into the fence. The attendant wasn't happy about that and gave him a "warning!".
Georgia and I spun around a bit. Aaron and JD went together on a tube. Georgia and I did as well. After a couple of hours we were too tired, but did not want to miss out on sliding around on the disks and playing in more snow.

We decided to go back to the same spot we were at yesterday. Today we had a new disks and wanted to try it out. The kids were really wanting to have a snowball fight and make a snowman. Derek and JD split up to make their weapons. Georgia and Aaron made a snowman. (those pics are on my phone and I haven't figured that new thing out yet.) I mostly watched. After awhile, some men came and asked Aaron to help them get their truck started and we began to get worn out. Once Georgia's tears started we knew it was time to go home(Eric and Deborah's house).....there is this little creek we all had to jump over to get in and out of this snowy spot. Derek, Georgia, and Aaron made it across. Derek was helping Georgia and saw me looking skeptical at the creek. It was partially frozen. He read my mind and said,,"Mom, your not gonna fall in."....and I fell in!!!! Cold!! Wet!!-just my foot, but STILL!!! They had a good laugh.

Finally, we headed out. We were really tired. We stopped to pick up our ski rentals and snowboards. WHEW!!
