Snowbird Week - Year 31

In 1977, my parents bought a time share in the
Iron Blosam Lodge at Snowbird.
That first year, it was just the two of them.
The next 20 years, they got the weekend by themselves...
then us kids got to come for the week.
For the last 10 years, it has began to include grandkids

Like these 5 handsome cousins
The BOYS
Carter, Ian, Colton, Cru & Bryson

Anna
The week is all about SWIMMING!


And more SWIMMING!


And more SWIMMING!

Until even my little water baby is begging to get out of the pool!
Goggle head...(that is what another little girl in the pool
was calling Bryce). He would respond with,
"Don't call me that!"

Those goggles were hilarious, though.
He'd go under water, they'd fill with water,
then he'd flip them over to empty them, put them back on
and do it all over again!
Too funny!


Cousin Ian, Brooke & Lily came for a couple days...

as did Nate, Becky, Adry, Cru & Carter
Cru - posing by the pool
We are so happy they are back in Salt Lake!
We get to see them so much now!

One nice thing that has changed over the last couple years,
is that ski resorts now have a lot more summer activities.

Aunt Leslie came up with some All Day Passes one day to
Ride the Tram up to Hidden Peak

Dave, Carli, Brooke, Lilly & Bryce on the Red Tram
Bryce and I at the top overlooking Little Cottonwood Canyon
Cool dude!
He was my buddy - up for anything!

Even playing in a little snow up on top...in JULY!
He even rode up the chairlift with me for his first time.
He kept asking if it was going to go faster.
It was a little slow for him, I guess.
The Alpine Slide wasn't too slow for him , though.
He did not pull back on the brake once.
We flew fast!
He loved it and did it again just as fast.
The bungy trampoline was a big hit, too.

Colton doing a back flip!

Bryce figured out a back flip in the first couple seconds.

Guess those gymnastics lessons paid off?

Lilly jumping high

Ian showing off his own backflip
Until next year.
