Ski Vacation 

Monday - We couldn't get into our condo today until 4:00 and it was about a 2 1/2 hour drive so we had a nice relaxing slow morning at home.  On the way up north we reviewed our Battle of the Books notes.  We arrived at our condo and all worked together to unpack and make dinner. After dinner we all did some reading, a puzzle, and the younger kids did a coloring contest.

Tuesday -  We drove about 40 minutes to a Ski resort we all really love, Nubs Nob.  It has been years since we skied here.  We got there right when the lifts opened and skied til close.  All the kids are independent skiiers but Westin still needs help with some things.  We love that Nubs over looks the Grand Travers Bay.  We were all very tired when we got back to our condo.  We had dinner and then just relaxed for the rest of the night.

We love the sculpture park on one of the trails 

These kids are awesome

Wednesday - We were all very sore after a full day of skiing yesterday.  We enjoyed the hot tub at our condo as it helped our sore leg muscles feel better.  We enjoyed reading, coloring, and relaxing.  After dinner we decided to go ice skating together. The kids had a great time.

Hot tub time!

Thursday We were loving this day.  Today we skiied at the mountain that our condo was on.  It was so easy.  We went back to our condo for lunch.  We were at Boyne Mountain.  None of us had ever skied this resort so it was fun to do something new together.
