Full moon rising from behind the Lionshead Rock ridge
Our Earthquake Twins and the Moyers' kids with their parents,
joined us for a fun potluck dinner on Saturday evening.
Michael, Maverick & I built
this snow cave in the afternoon,
while little Steele was taking a nap.
Michael gives a last "touch",
while showing the cave to an interested Wagner.
Kids in the cave:
Wagner, Lilly, Michael & Maverick;
Steele was having a drink inside
Happy faces in the cave
The Schorr-Ratzlaff's playing with the sticks
Little Steele...
not so happy to have to go back inside the house.
(Well... he was walking out there in his socks!)
Kids' Team goofing around #1
Kids' Team goofing around #2
After dinner we got ready for our full moon
snowshoe / butt-sledding adventure on Meadow Mountain.
The 2 sled-dogs (Michael & Maverick)
The Musher: Steele
He was having fun yelling "HIKE!" to his doggies.
Mamma Mariella & Ratz
The kids were going full throttle, up until...
the uphill.
Then they started complaining that their little brother was too heavy,
and Mariella & I had to replace them.
Finally...
SLEDDING!!!
Maverick starting the butt-sledding adventure.
Steele trying it out
with mom holding him from behind.
Well...
until she didn't wipe out and Steele
took a little slide on his own.
Chris giving it a try.
He was crowned the
"King of Wiping Out in Style".
He was sooo fast that, when he put a foot down
to slow himself down, he was catapulted (literally!!!)
off the trail and got some bruises and cuts
he proudly showed them off.
Michael trying a new sliding position.
Ehm... he didn't go too far.
You can see him in the top left side of this pic,
while his brother watches over him.
Tsunamy on the sled
Michael & Ratz taking a break for the camera
Maverick & Mariella starting their quest.
Mariella was crowned the
"Queen of Speed & Distance"
She flew down the slope sooo fast that
it took her a WHILE to hike back up to our base!
Steele & Chris waiting for Mariella's return
Mariella ready for another round,
this time with little Steele.
Sarah leading the crew to go back home.
What a fun day!!!
But next time... Chris & I decided to get a whole barrel
of RedBull before even trying to compete with...
The Moyers' Kids!!!
We were wiped out, while they were still playing before going to bed.
WOW!!! :)
