Playing Hooky

Well, a promise to our eldest that I would take him skiing before I started work meant skiing today or tomorrow. Given the crazy storm that is moving in, we decided to go to Copper today (even though skiing would likely be great tomorrow). It also meant less school interruptions as D-man was able to go to math class before we left today and T-man starts state testing tomorrow. 

The ride up was fine besides some construction, but we had a bit of a rough start on the mountain. Fortunately, after lunch (and me losing my temper a bit), we all calmed down and had a great afternoon. We were a bit rushed getting home, but we made it! I'm sure I will remember this day both for the good and bad memories :) But, glad to take advantage of 1 of 2 days before work starts again. 

 

Starbucks before we hit the road 

 

Sunshine and amazing snow. It was cold and they had 3" of new snow so it wasn't spring skiing at all. 

 

My loves and my frustrations :) 

 

The storm thinking about moving in, but it never did. Also, nice how busy it is.
