Crested Butte - Easter

We spent Easter weekend in Crested Butte this year.  We got an awesome deal at a ski in ski out hotel and decided that a destination holiday weekend was just the ticket to some time together that we were looking for. 
 
I took this picture of Chance about five minutes after we checked in.  I guess the little guy was more in need of some R&R than I thought. 
 
 
The best part of our stay was how close we were to the kid's ski area.  We could walk out for 30 minutes and just play until Savannah got tired of skiing and then go back inside to get warm.  It was awesome!

Both Chance and Savannah light up when they ski with Max.  It is so fun to watch.

 
We hit up a free concert on the rooftop at the base of the mountain and ended up running into a friend of Max's from high school. 


 
Zach Smith played soccer with Max at Lansing and was in Crested Butte solo for the weekend.  We ended up spending a lot of time together and decided to head into the town of Crested Butte for dinner. 


 
We packed the kids Easter baskets and presents that were mailed from grandparents so that we could keep the Easter morning tradition. 


 
We talked about why we celebrate Easter and enjoyed our time as a family in the morning. 



 
We went to the towns Easter Egg hunt later that morning. 


 
Chance and Savannah had a blast!


 
We spent Sunday afternoon skiing on the bunny slopes and enjoying the sun. 




 
It was a wonderful quick weekend get away that we will never forget!
