Steamboat Memories!

Where do I even begin??? This was our third annual Steamboat trip and it was by far the best yet! The weather was perfect, snowboarding was awesome and the time with friends I will forever cherish.

We got into Denver early Wednesday morning and took a shuttle to Steamboat.
The drive was perfect.



We got into town and went to eat pizza at the Slopeside Grill. Best pizza in town.

The next day Michael and I went skiing/snowboarding. Bluebird day. Snow was great! It was wonderful getting back on the slopes again with Michael.



Thursday evening our wonderful friends the Austins, Tottens and Epps got into town! Let the party begin! Words can't explain how wonderful it was seeing everybody.

Friday the girls went shopping and then Susie and I decided to go skiing. We met up with my good friend Ann. It was great to see her! And I think Greg enjoyed skiing with us:) What a fun day.





Friday night we went to Strawberry Park to meet the Millers and their friends. We had a blast. We came back to our condo ate pizza, and watched the cat video. Michael had his head cam and was able to video the entire day! Hopefully he can add this to our blog or put it on utube. Later that night the Weeks showed up with their beautiful baby boy Jackson. He was perfect the entire time and was such a joy!






Saturday the boys ski'd the back bowls and Susie and I went on our own. What an amazing day we had! White out conditions, but perfect runs. Everyone went in for lunch and the slopes were ours! Unfortunately I fell and got a hair line fracture on my elbow but who cares. We had fun!







Saturday night we went to an Italian restaurant called Mambo Italiano. Sherree and I giggled most of the time and sweet little Jackson slept through all of our loud cackles. The food was great, but most of all the time spent together was the best part of the trip.







We got to the airport the next day around 1 and off we were to San Diego. The trip went by way to fast. Snow and sand all in one day. We were sad to not have spent more time in Denver. Next time we go we will hopefully see everyone!

Looking forward to another great Steamboat trip in '09!!!

Wow, I guess I haven't checked the blog in a while - look what I missed! So glad you guys had so much fun, though I'm sad that you were sort of in town and we missed you :( I'm also really sad that Jay and I haven't been snowboarding yet since we moved to Denver, it's been 2 seasons now!
