Next adventure was Panorama with the Pizzey side. Every two years we try to go a family reunion with all my parents kids and their kids. We all made it and everyone has kids now so it filled with kids. It was nice we were all on the hill in our own little condo units that had a kitchen and 2-3 bedrooms. We took care of our own breakfasts and lunches. Then we each took a night and made dinner.
There was lots to do. We did a small kid friendly hike, tennis tournament, Invermere lake a couple days, softball for an evening, some people went horse back riding, some went down hill biking, and of course the heating pools at the base of the ski hill. It was fun!
We get so packed in our van. We have a roof rack now but it's still crazy with 4 kids how much you have to bring. And I think we packed smart as well. We also had to pack for two weeks. Panorama and Echo.
The kids and I waited outside of sobey's while people grocery shopped. I'm so grateful for a husband who doesn't mind grocery shopping.
The day we were leaving Colby really hurt his leg. Possible break. Ended up being a really bad stretch/ hyper extension. He couldn't even walk or put any pressure on it. They casted to be sure and it ended up allowing his leg to rest which was good. Bad timing of the injury though. All his cousins wanted to give him a hug and some candy.
We call these two the twins.
She's so squishy!!! I just love this girl
Waiting for the gondola. Kids loved the gondola
We came here lots growing up to ski during spring break. This chair is a must do picture.
They had a kid zone you could buy a pass to each day. We tried this out once.
We also took the chair lift to the top.
Think you had to be 6 to horseback ride. Talia was super excited but I could tell she was a bit nervous. Her horse was led by the instructor so that made us both feel better. I did not go on the horseback ride. Lindsay and my Mom went with Talia and Avery.
Softball evening. I think she is trying to do Richard's victory dance.
I think he ate a crayon or felt? Can't remember? He's busy
My Grandma Lynne was able to come with us. The kids sure do love GG.
I feel like this photo could be from the 80s.
My mom brought some crafts for the kids. They sure love crafts.
We all have the same sweaters. I found them haha! They're pretty comfy
If one of our kids gets sick it's usually Jace. I think he legit had sunstroke despite decent effort to keep him hydrated and sunscreened up. He was out for the night way early!!! Poor guy
Heavnors of course brought the fun paddler boards. They were being used the whole time. So we're all glad they brought them!
Lunch time
All the kids minus Colby. And me in the background attempting my first hand stand.
This boy loves to climb
More lake. Different spot.
This was the start of our kids friendly hike. It was about an hour or so walk on a paved path. It was actually pretty tough with some of the hills towards the end.
Jason stayed with Beck so he could nap. So it was just me and the 3 kiddos. That's the nice thing about having your own condo unit, and being close to where you're staying. Can just come and go and meet up quickly after a baby naps.
Jace's dream.
This girl still really likes strollers. There's usually minimal effort on walks..
Got Taren to come out and do a twin headstand competition.
Finn and my Mom. One of the three babies born earlier this year.
They were pretty happy when they realized they had the same sweaters
My baby boy!!!
I really like paddle boarding
Every parent loves when their kids play in sand in the suits.... haha
It was a fun trip. Great place to visit and be with family. Guess we'll see where we go in two years and we'll see how much we've grown.
