Aspen, Colorado

Our annual super bowl weekend snowboarding trip.  This year we went to Aspen.  Even though snowfall amounts for the area were some of the lowest in decades, there was a lot of man made snow put on Buttermilk mountain thanks to the Winter X Games the week prior.  Buttermilk mountain also has a wonderful ski school with plenty of spanish speaking instructors -- perfect for Annika.  Her first time seeing snow and hitting the slopes was a success.  She absolutely loved it and that made us happy since it allowed Julia and I to hit the slopes as well.  As a nice send-off, on our last night it snowed and continued to snow till the early afternoon giving us a rare experience of snowboarding on some nice powder.  Boy was that a fantastic gift!
