Kat's House DAY 3 (12-21-2010)

On Tuesday, we headed to Loveland for a day of skiing.  The roads were fine until we were up in the mountains.  Then there was an accident and some issue with then Eisenhower Tunnel, so it took us forever to get there.  Of course, it took everyone else forever to get there,too, so there was a rush for ski rentals and registration to ski school.  Bayli and Brett were going to ski school while Ryan skiied with Bronco in a harness and Matt skiied with Jace.

As you can see from this picture, Brett was done before he even got started.  He did not want to go to ski school after it took so long to get our gear.  We sent him anyway and watched him fall and just lay there in the snow until some ski teacher would come over to help him.  Their recommendation for him was private lessons since he took so much one-on-one having a bad attitude.  They called me early afternoon to come get him.  When they found out we were from San Antonio, they blamed it on that!  But once Brett was out of ski school, he was totally stoked about heading up for a couple runs with Matt and then playing in the snow.  He just didn't want to do ski school.  Bayli, on the other hand, did GREAT!  She was a trooper.  And Jace learned a lot practicing with Matt, and Bronco had a great time being Ryan's ski puppet in the harness.
 Here's Bayli and Brett before ski school started.
 And Bayli, ready to go with her group of girls!

 And then they were done and came in to play with the iPad for a while...
 After ski school, Bayli took a few runs with her daddy.
 And when it was all done, we headed down the mountain to Beau Jo's for some mountain pie (aka pizza...really good pizza).  YUM!
 While we waited for food, Bronco serenaded us all with his rendition of the Imperial March, "Da da da da d-da da d-da!"
 Man, we look tired!  And we didn't even ski!!!
We had a great day.  Bed never felt so good!
