The ski trip was from Saturday to Monday, so we decided to celebrate Valentine's Day a little early with lunch out at Panda Express and a special Valentine's pizza dinner at home. Jonathan surprised me with some beautiful flowers! We had a nice, quiet celebration (the calm before the ski trip storm!) :)
My Valentines! <3 |
The next day, we loaded up twenty-eight people into five cars and drove four hours north to Pagosa Springs. We had an awesome group of high school students! Here they are all lined up:
The trip included playing at the Rec Center, group devotionals and activities, meals, and (of course) skiing!
Benji and I did not ski, so we spent that morning at the indoor pool. What a treat!
The trip was certainly stressful (trying to focus on the teenagers without losing the toddler, several chaperones having to cancel last-minute, cooking meals for thirty people, and one snowboarding accident that led to a fractured wrist...) Thankfully, we all made it home in one piece and I think the kids had fun--and grew together as a group--so I guess we will call it a successful weekend. :)
I think Lena was Benji's Valentine |
