So after a not so great day on Friday - 3 hours waiting for equipment, the lift at the bunny hill not working and Maddy getting sick (literally) on the slopes, Saturday was the complete opposite. (Although after Friday Amy decided to stay home and hang with the dogs, so we have no pictures of her skiing...)

The kids did awesome! Nick and Maddy hung out with Craig and by the end of the day, they were doing great with controlling where they were going and being able to stop! Joey and Dad hung together and Joey got over his "concern" about speed and was making his way down the hill all by himself at the end of the day. As for Katie, Mom unfortunately was charged with keeping up with her. It is sad to say, but after three days of skiing, I'm afraid she has surpassed my skiing ability! :) Katie and Joey finished up the day trying to hit as many bumps as they could and seeing who could catch some air!

The gang all getting ready to head out for a day of skiing...




Katie and Joey comparing notes after an awesome run down the Paradise Trail...




Joey and Dad enjoying some time together on the way back to the top of the mountain. Joey was a bit apprehensive about the whole lift thing, but after the second day he was a pro!





The aftermath!







And of course we had to celebrate Nick's birthday!
