For Spring Break this year, we packed up and headed to Angel Fire, NM. The boys had never skied and were very excited. The area was actually having a bit of a heat wave, but there was enough snow to ski on at least for the time we were there. We signed them up for two days of ski school and then skied with them on the last day.
Waiting in line at ski school.
It had been years for both Steve and I since we had skied, so it was good to get our skis under us while the kids were in school.
We are taking a lunch break at the summit here on the first day.
Here comes Joshua in after a day of ski school (behind the guy in red)
And here is Charles at ski school...he loved it!
Back at the condo, exhausted!

Pulling the tube up the magic carpet..
Ready to slide
The tubing was a lot of fun...we got to do it for an entire hour!
Here is a quick video of Charles after his 2nd day of ski school. You can see that he is bringing up the rear with a huge snowball in his hand!!
The skiing conditions were actually pretty bad because of the hot weather. It was icy in the morning and slushy in the afternoon, but the boys couldn't have cared less. They LOVED it and talked about skiing in 2012 as soon as we left. Hmmm, we'll see about that.
