Another great family reunion chilling at Targhee. The snow was so amazing and the weather was perfect! We had blue skies every day. The hot tub was working this year so it was great to soak our tired legs at the end of the day.
Of course the powder hounds had to hike Mary's in search of the best snow. I don't think Blake and Jared enjoyed the experience of getting caught waist deep in powder.
The secret is to wheelie the whole way down and don't stop or you will be stuck forever. I know I learned the hard way. It's exhausting. I didn't go on that one thank goodness or I would still be there till spring!
One of my favorite things about hanging on the Shoshone lift is explaining to my younger girls the bra tree. Not! What are we teaching these kids on Shoshone? I forget about it every year and then I have to laugh when I am reminded by my first glance of the year. The Mardi Gras beads are pretty awesome though I need to try that before the season ends.
Dinner was such a welcome retreat every night. Thank you to all who cooked. Kayla I want your cake recipe. I think the kids had a blast with the bingo game. I don't think anyone walked away empty handed. I know my kids came back with armfuls of goodies. One of my favorite nights was watching the X-Games with everyone back at the room. We were awe struck by Shaun White. We are all wannabes along with half the world. I guess every night was my favorite I enjoyed celebrating Spencer's 19th Birthday. We ran down to Broulims Saturday night and bought dinner and cake and ice cream.
Thanks to all of you who traveled so far to come be with us. I hope we can do it again next year. It just gets better and better.
