Boyne Mountain Ski Trip

We got in from our ski trip yesterday afternoon. We had a great time! The drive wasn't bad at all. It was much colder up there than it was at home, but after a little bundling up it wasn't too bad. Boyne Mountain was beautiful. Back here at home the closest ski mountain is pretty small, Boyne was about 4 times bigger.



When we got in Friday we walked around to check the place out. We went ahead and bought our lift tickets for the weekend. They had $10 lift tickets for Friday night, so while Andy, Tony, and Kristen went out I stayed in by the fire. They were only out for about 2 hours since it was freezing! We went to grab dinner at the pizza place on the resort, Trophy Room Pub & Pizzeria. So yummy!
 I love that we had a fire place in our room. I had that thing on every chance I could!

Saturday was the day all 4 of us hit the slopes. It was so nice to ski right out of our condo! It wasn't as cold as I thought it was going to be with the sun shining on us. We all had a great time, and I only fell about twice! 









Saturday night we went to the casino, but sadly none of us came home big winners. I was just excited to play my favorite slot, The Wizard of Oz :)

Sunday while the boys went skiing Kristen and I had a day at the spa. We started out by relaxing in the relaxation room. We then went to the Hatha Yoga class. It was my first time ever going to yoga and let me tell you I can now understand why people love it! It was so relaxing. The class was 75 minutes long and I enjoyed every minute. Next, we went to get into the whirlpool tub. After a long day of skiing it was super nice to get in! We went into the cider sauna before heading up for our manicure. While getting our mani's we had a great view of the mountain and got to watch all the skiers. I loved having a girly day while the boys were skiing. 

Sunday night we wanted to watch the Super Bowl at a bar/restaurant. So we went "downtown" to see what we could find. We found this great little place.





We came home Monday afternoon. It was a great trip! Thanks to Tony & Kristen for inviting us to come along!
