We spent last weekend in Big Sky, MT skiing and hanging out with some of our friends from college. We had an awesome time and now have a new favorite ski resort! It is Colorado-quality skiing with 1/4 of the people...that's my kind of place!! Gabi was able to go to ski school on Saturday and now has gained the confidence to ski by herself and she LOVES it! We skiied again on Sunday morning as well. I can't wait until we can ski together as a familiy! Some of my best memories with my parents and brother were on the ski slopes, so I hope to share that with my girls as well.

| Having a blast! At first she would follow my turns down the slope, now she has to be the leader. :) |
Maya was able to try out skiing as well. We rode up the "magic carpet" and she skiied down between my legs. She kept saying "faster! faster!" and giggled the whole way down.

Joe and I skiied with Jason, Chris, Sam, and Tracy on Saturday. Ashley was kind enough to watch Maya and Gabi was in ski school. We had a great time exploring Big Sky. We rode the tram up to the top of Lone Peak and the boys skiied off (Tracy & I rode the tram back down...that's pretty extreme skiing up there for us mamas!)

| The view from the top...you could even see the Tetons! Beautiful! |
Between the four families, we had six GIRLS ages 4 and under (Gabi was the oldest). They had lots of fun playing together! All of the guys that went are former UW runners. We are still convinced that Coach Sanchez somehow spiked the gatorade to eliminate the chance of any male offspring. :)

| Cute little Greta...always a smile on her face! |
A bunch of us went to a ski joring competition on Sunday afternoon. It was held at a local guest ranch, so the atmosphere was fun. All of the little girls had a blast just playing in the snow together. We had beautiful weather the entire weekend.
 |
Ski joring is when a horse pulls a skier through a slalom-type course with jumps and other obstacles.
Kinda like water skiing in a way. |
 |
| Gabi & Maya had fun pulling Greta on the sled. |

Ashely & Greta ...Ashley is expecting her second baby on Maya's birthday!
I'm betting it will be a girl...what do you wanna bet!? |

| Another couple of snow bunnies...Tessa & Tracy :) |
Hope you all have a great weekend! Lots of love, Tara
