Spring Break 2014 - Whistler, BC

For this year's spring break we decided to take our first ski vacation. It turned out to be one of our best vacations yet! We had an incredible week full of "firsts" for all of us and had an amazing family vacation.

We stayed Creekside at Whistler, in a two-bedroom condo. Our place had a full kitchen, washer/dryer, fireplace...so it felt like home for the week. We could walk to the slopes and to ski school, and just a short bus ride to the Whistler Village. View from the balcony of our condo:


Saturday morning the kids started ski school. We were unsure if all three would like skiing, so we crossed our fingers as we said good-bye for the day. Turns out all three loved skiing and loved the ski school :-)






At the end of each day we relaxed in the hot tub!
  


Sunday night in Whistler Village with friends...


Fun on the slopes with just me and Matt:

Wednesday was Family ski day!!! (I was a beginner on this trip so we stayed on the greens, the kids were better than me...which they were very proud of!) We were so proud of the kids and how great they did skiing. To make it even better they had a ton of fun -- it made us happy to see them having so much fun.
