Ski Trip day 4

And day four! Such a fun time. Last day :(

We went DOG SLEDDING! AMAZING!!! We got up really early and walked to the bus station to pick us up. It was "blizzard like conditions". Snow everywhere. I loved it. Reese loved it. She was hypnotized by the snow. She kept wandering off and walking in it.



We got to the dog sledding place, which was in the middle of no where. Trees everywhere covered perfectly in snow. I can honestly say it was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever seen. The dogs were very ...wild? They let us pet them but something about it didn't feel as safe. I wanted to girls to stay back. I'm sure it was fine but they weren't like Hannah and Allie. It felt like they would snap at the wrong move. They didn't though so I might just be a little dramatic. Wouldn't be a first :)

But we went. It was fun. I had no interest in driving the sled. I was a happy passenger. Of course Saige is exactly like me and didn't want to drive it either. Cut from the same cloth I tell ya! But Reese drove it! She loved it and we loved watching! And the other couple that was with us proposed to his girlfriend while we were out. So sweet!!!

It got extremely cold while we were out and the girls cried. :( I knew it was coming because I was getting very cold and I knew they must have been feeling it. Soon tears came. We warmed up with hot cocoa when we got inside. It was super fun though!


Waking up to all the snow! Taking a few pictures before heading out.

After dog sledding we skied some more. We did a few carpet runs before the real deal. Saige happily skied this day. Not sure what changed but happy she tried :) The kids didn't care to go down the bigger mountain again and I didn't either. I've decided I don't care for skiing but love snow . SO we got a Starbucks and played outside for a good hour in the snow. It was perfect for me and them. The others went skiing. All were happy!!
 
 
 




 
Starbucks, snow, fire pit-yes please!


 
Literally a trip of a life time. Can't wait to go again and play in the snow.
