Sundays in Snowmass

After a night of attempting the Dirty Dancing Official Workout DVD (seriously, pure entertainment), we spent Sunday morning lounging around before heading to brunch and then into the Base Village at Snowmass. Snowmass is more family friendly than Aspen. Family Friendly=kids everywhere. Some of them screaming.


Judi and I rode the gondola up the mountain and back down again. So pretty!







And I even took a spin down the mountain!


HA TOTALLY KIDDING! I was content to just stand on the mountain and take a picture. Although when the five-year olds zipped by me, I felt quite inferior.



The highlight of the Base Village is getting to ride the "Skittle". The Skittle is mini gondola-ish type thing that takes riders from the Base Village to the Snowmass Mall higher up the mountain. It is called a Skittle because the cars look like, um, Skittles. We rode in a red Skittle.



SKITTLERS!!!!!






(Judi and Trish bought new hats too. So did Erin but I do not have a pic. When in Aspen, we buy hats. It's what we do.)


We stayed in on Sunday night and prepared a great dinner!! Mainly it was things to dip things in. Hummus, spinach artichoke dip, etc. So good!



And then we settled in to watch some TV. One of my guiltiest pleasures in ABC Family original movies. (Anyone else super pumped that Au Pair 3 is going to be on in March!). Anyway, we watched Another Cinderella Story which may have been the most cringe-worthy of all ABC Family movies....ever. But yet I watched the whole thing.
