More skiing...

Although their hasn't been an abundance of snow this year, we have been up every weekend since Oliver is in ski lessons.  It's been spring skiing all January.

Ski Season is officially open

Yesterday was the official first day of the Stevens Ski Season (ok, Kelly's season starts next week).

Oliver and I went up for his first ski lesson.  Although there is not a ton of snow, the sun was out and we had some fun up on the hill!

Check out the air!  Oliver wanted to hit the park and took a couple jumps.

New Years at Suncadia

Another successful New Years vacation with the Leptich, Johnson, Brown, Kruse and Stevens families.  Suncadia had no snow but that didn't stop us from enjoying the outdoors!

OK - now they were a bit quieter while watching Planes

Dance party on New Years.  Oliver and Ella lost some clothes

On the first of January we went on a walk and found the golf course as a great playground

Sand traps had ice skating rinks in them

On another hole, frozen water only a couple inches thick - thus safe to glide on…Oliver enjoying the ice

Ruby snuggling in with Avery, Ella, and Hayden

Spa day at Suncadia.  Taylor, Ella, Avery, and Ruby getting their nails painted
