Skiing 05

Some of Beau's pictures from our family ski trip. Ryan came along, his first time to ski! Possibly the best snow and most fun of any ski trip I've taken. Ryan, I deleted a few of the pictures with you in them. If you want all the originals (full size) I can burn you a CD











This is Day 2 - snowboarding. 1st 2 days were boarding, 3rd was skiing, 4th was snow blading (skii boarding) which was awesome



kara





and we're off!









ryan fell over?















Ryan on the blades. Much happier than the board!





Dee shows us how it's done





textbook







Ryan shows us his 'funky chicken' manuver





For his first time skiing, Ryan did GREAT







Bree looks like a bandit with that black thingy on her chin



woah!



kara leans back a lot



trying to get across a flat area without poleing





Beau has excellent form









I spent too much time on the ground - I kept falling when I wasn't moving, or just decided to sit down when we were waiting soo much



Come on, let's go!





Zach, in full hillbilly getup





mom did pretty good, so we hung with her for almost the whole trip









I crashed real nice like on some icy, hard moguls. Everyone had their laugh. But the next day when I was on the snow blades, everyone else was either tired or frustrated on the black moguls, while I was able to enjoy them on the snow blades



...oh, me?...just...ya know...restin'.



mom looks like a skii bum









Don't ask me what I'm looking at, we didn't see many birds or anything





Gorgeous views







It dumped powder the first 2 days, so it was great for skiing. Then the last two days were more and more clear.



It's black mogul time



Bree got a little frustrated

















a fast blue. Very fun on snow blades, because it's easier to lose control ;)



Oh, this is the steepest black. We're waiting on the girls. But not complaining because this part is tiring!



Or is that me falling with my hand up?



into a mogul



and out
