Last year, we spent one weekend a month camping at Crystal Mountain, which we love to do. This year, we’ve been a little busy (ha) and haven’t made it up there until this weekend. The kids love playing in the snow after the ski day is done. We also went on a “snow walk” toContinue reading “Finally, a weekend at Crystal!”

Ski Weekend in Utah
Jim and I had already planned our annual ski weekend in Utah months before we knew about the Belgium trip, so two and a half days after we got home… we left again. We flew to Salt Lake City Thursday night. On Valentine’s Day, we woke up and drove to Deer Valley. And got thisContinue reading “Ski Weekend in Utah”
That’s a Wrap: Winter Break 2020
I told someone the other day that this was likely the best winter break I’ve had in a long time. I felt like it had a nice balance of time at home with nothing scheduled, outings and fun activities, family events, and friends. Sometimes we get to the end of break and wonder what justContinue reading “That’s a Wrap: Winter Break 2020”
Utah Ski Trip 2019
I’m just going to go ahead and add the year to the title of this post because we are so sure that we are going back. 🙂 Over the years, Jim and I have done a ski weekend away for President’s Day. Two years ago we took the kids to Mission Ridge and started theirContinue reading “Utah Ski Trip 2019”
More Skiing
It was absolutely gorgeous weather for our Ski Saturday last weekend! Annnnd… it was packed. It was the most crowded we’ve ever seen, and we overheard at lunchtime that there were 9000 people on the mountain. Apparently everyone else decided to ski too! JT and Jim had a fun adventure when JT asked to goContinue reading “More Skiing”
January Ski Weekend
We spent four whole days at Crystal Mountain last week! First, the kids and I went (and took my nephew Preston with us) over winter break. It was a gorgeous day, hardly anyone was on the mountain, the snow was great, and the kids were positively ripping! What a great view on the way upContinue reading “January Ski Weekend”
Ski Saturdays
We are back in action for Keene family Ski Saturdays! We love getting up bright and early and heading to the mountains. Surprisingly, even after a long week at school and work, we are all up and out of the house cheerfully before 7 AM to hit the slopes by nine. The kids just loveContinue reading “Ski Saturdays”
Ski Weekend #2
This past weekend we had another weekend at Crystal Mountain, staying in the camper and skiing. We have so much fun doing this as a family! We arrived to tons of snow and got cozy… We forgot all of our games except one, so the kids started working on making their own. They made PictionaryContinue reading “Ski Weekend #2”
Weekend Away in Wenatchee
Jim and I planned a ski weekend sans children way back in October or something… and it finally arrived. Our dear friends Katie and Carl joined us, and we had sooooo much fun! We arrived Saturday afternoon, went to dinner, and then hung out at the hotel laughing and catching up. Sunday morning we hitContinue reading “Weekend Away in Wenatchee”
Skiing in the Sunshine
Jim had to work on Saturday, but that didn’t stop the kids and I from heading up the mountain for the day. The weather was gorgeous and the kids improved so much during the day. They learned how to ski on a little bit of ice and we spent the whole day on blue/intermediate runs,Continue reading “Skiing in the Sunshine”
