Ty's company came under new ownership and with that, he was granted MLK and Presidents Day off. We took advantage of the long February weekend with a ski trip at White Pass.
We rented a VRBO in Packwood (with what turned out to be crazy owners) and put the kids in lessons for the first time. Hazel's ski rental took so long that she almost missed hers and I (finally) agreed that it's worth it for everyone to have their own gear.
The classes allowed Ty and I to ski solo but after two hours of getting everything situated and my boots hurting my calves, I only made it on one run before I was ready for lunch in the lodge. The kids met us there and we rallied for the afternoon, staying until the mountain closed at 4 pm. Sunday went much smoother and we got a full day of skiing in.
Every time we get up to the mountain I feel more on board with Ty's vision of being a ski family. It really is beautiful and such a fun way to spend time together.
