We went back to Durango this past weekend for our last ski trip of the season! John had a long weekend, so we decided to get out of town and experience ANOTHER adventure out west! The other fellow at John's work also decided to take his family, so all 9 of us piled into one condo for the weekend. It worked out great since they have 3 little girls right around our boys' ages. William had constant playmates! Of course, I didn't get to ski, so Edward and I enjoyed the condo while the others skiied their little hearts out! William did daycare/ski school which works out great for him since he can't handle skiing all day! He loves the childcare room and even took a nap for them!

We took a roadtrip to Silverton one day. The drive was absolutely gorgeous!!!!! The town itself was not so great. Since it was winter, their museums were closed, but we found a walking tour of old saloons and we also ate at a great cafe for lunch. The boys were actually very good and the locals enjoyed seeing some little ones on such a slow day in Silverton.

John and William also tried out the tubing after skiing one day. William called his tube a "doughnut". John said William loved it!!!!

We headed back Sunday and it was a good thing because TONS of spring breakers were heading in for the week. We stopped by the mountain on our way out of town and it was crazy busy!!! We picked a good day to leave! When we got back to Albuquerque, we had more snow here! Of course, it was beautiful, but gone quickly. I'm getting ready for some spring weather!!!!!

This week is William's spring break, so we are home all week. I'm hoping the weather warms up so we can spend it outside!
