We went to Utah for some skiing and time with family the first week of February. While we were there we had Piper's baby blessing - it was the first time everyone from both of our families were together in one place. It was such a special family event to have everyone there for Piper's big day. She looked adorable wearing the same dress that both Mia and Lily wore for their baby blessings.
We had a wonderful week of skiing and snow fun. The girls were in ski school on Monday to remember what to do from last year, and it didn't take them long! Jason and I skied and then picked them up a little early from class so we could take them to ski with us. They did amazing!! it was so fun to watch them. By the end of the day on Wednesday Mia informed me that she was bored with the green runs and was ready for more. We took the big lift up and she attempted a blue, and loved it! What a great day riding up the lift with my big girl and skiing down the hills together. I kept thinking of how fast she is growing up and how glad I am that we are friends and enjoy doing things together. Lily and Jason kept each other company, and by the end she could do the lift all alone and wanted to go down the hill with no one close to her. She is all about going fast and straight down the hill. Being up on the slopes as a family is the best! We even had Piper up there with us on the last day - thanks to my parents that came and kept her company in the lodge. :)
It was a great trip full of memories. We had lots of time to spend with Jason's siblings and their kids that we don't see very often. The girls were busy and tired, but were so good. And Piper got to meet all of her family members, since most had not yet seen her, and was constantly loved on and held. My sister kept her one day while we skied, and she held her all day long, she didn't even put her down for naps. Piper came home more spoiled than when we left. She survived the first of many plane rides and trips to Utah.
Here are some photos from our trip!
