Breckenridge, Part 3

Catch up on Part 1 and Part 2 here and here!

Sunday morning we all woke up early and invaded church.  With all of us we filled a whole pew!  After church we headed back to the cabin to hang out while Mr. IM and Grandude visited Alma and Fairplay, two towns "just over the pass".  The Boy and The Girl watched some quality cable tv while the other moms and I took their four boys to the mountain the check in.  We had a great time on the chairlift and it was gorgeous day!  After checking the boys in, we all proceeded to the Frisco Adventure Park for some tubing fun--even with the melty snow we had an awesome time!


Monday was a lesson day for the other kids, while The Boy and The Girl skied (snowboarded) with Mr. IM and Grandude.  We moms hung out in town and walked about five miles before a well deserved lunch at Empire Burger.  I met the family at the car after their day on the mountain and we took a short walk to our "usual place", the little grocery store downtown, to pick up Gatorades.  In the evening, Grandude and the kids piled into the hot tub to relax (ok, Grandude relaxed...)

Apparently it was a great day because The Boy actually fell asleep while watching tv...and he never sleeps....

















Tuesday morning T's boys were in lessons again, while R and C took their boys on an adventure.  (The Ranch kids skied and boarded...).  T and I went back to the cabin and read (ok, napped).  After lessons and skiing (boarding) the kids all went outside to play in the snow.  They found a picnic table buried under about two feet of snow--when they dug it out, it created a little snow cave.  We offered to let them sleep in it, but they decided not to.

 Wednesday morning we packed up and headed back to reality....a great vacation and we are already debating "who turn" it is to "host" next time!

Watching the grader "rescue" us--with all the melting the road was a bit of a mess!

The Boy, shoveling the driveway.  Notice the "party house" across the street--there were about ten college aged guys staying there who provided us with a lot of entertainment.  And mysteries--"is that a dead body or a sweatshirt"?  "How does a keg work at altitude?"

Look at all those cars!

Items, since claimed, that were left by the front door when we were ready to leave for the last time.

Bye, animal skin on the wall!  (Bear?)  He has a cute little tail...
