About Me & My Family
I'm a mother
3 Kids 1-9 years old boys and girls

When we travel, good food and adventure always abound. Our family loves to push the limit of what we can do with children. Our mantra has always been - have kids, will travel. However, this doesn't mean I'm unlike most frantic moms before a trip. Wanting adventure and being a control freak can sometimes be a lethal combination.
Our Family's Travel Personality
adventurous, independent, spontaneous
We Just Got Back From
Northern California and Oregon
Our Favorite Vacation Spot
Hawaii
A Place We'd Love To Visit
New Zealand, Argetina, Brazil, Eastern Europe, Cambodia
Favorite Vacation Memory
Climbing Machu Picchu with a 4 month old infant in a slight and having all the locals stop us to ask what happened to his feet which were all bundled up. They just couldn't believe it wouldn't be bow legged.
Worst Travel Moment With My Kids:
Getting to the airport on our way to Scotland with my 15 month old and discovering that my husband's passport had expired. Instead of rebooking all of our flights, we decided that I would do the first leg of our journey on my own with baby. Unfortunately, we had not packed for me to be flying by myself. I could bearly walk to the runway with all my bags and a 15 month old who would get distracted by everything along the way. He then proceeded to sleep only 1 hour of the entire 11 hour journey (red-eye). It was pretty miserable.

Ski Resorts in Colorado with Ski Schools and Daycare

Ready to shred up those Colorado black diamonds?  Oh wait, what are you going to do with your kids?  If you don't fancy spending all day doing bunny runs or hanging out at the lodge with junior while your spouse zips down the slopes, there is an alternative.  Many Colorado ski resorts offer excellent half and full day ski school for kids 3 and up.  Some even have day care that offer fun for kids who are not ready to hit the slopes.

Child care to private and group ski lessons and a mix of both for young children ages 8 weeks - 4 years.
