A long weekend for the boys meant a trip to the mountains for the family. After the Blue and Gold Cub Scout banquet on Friday and basketball on Saturday (where Tanner scored his first points of the season!), we headed to Eagle to spend a wonderful weekend with our good friends the Smiley's. As always, they were amazing hosts and we had a great time. While the snow was not the best and the crowds busier because of the holiday weekend, Sunday was a great first day of the season for all of the Peavy's. I enjoyed breaking in my new skis and boots and D-man enjoyed using poles for the first time.
Both boys were a bit disappointed that we were only able to ski one day this weekend. D-man wasn't thrilled about having to take a lesson, but we thought it best that his first time on the slopes this season was with a lesson. He did get to take a lift ride up with Marshall at the end of the day and ski down the mountain (Marshall said it was best he had seen D-man ski). T-man got after it and was able to take Marshall and me (separately) up the gondola and then lead the way back down the mountain. I could barely keep up with him - he was doing SO well. It was so much fun to watch him love skiing.
Marshall worked on Monday from Eagle, but the boys and I enjoyed a lazy morning, playing Xbox, and a trip to the pool with Rachel and the kids. The boys had a GREAT time playing together at the pool - it was special to see them playing so well together. We left Eagle around 4:30 and arrived home at 6:30 - no traffic at all! We made a quick dinner and enjoyed sharing our cherries (swimming, skiing, seeing friends) and pits (leaving). What a great way to spend the 3-day weekend as a family.
