Whistler 09'

This year we had another great vacation at Whistler. Here is the entire group, everyone but Joey was there and we had such a blast together. I really hope that we keep this yearly tradition up!

One of the fun things that most of us did together was getting in one of these gondolas below and doing the peak to peak ride. We were able to travel from Whistler Mountain to the Blackcomb one in just one ride. It was amazing and so hard to believe that we all had no problems being so high up.

One of the amazing views we got to enjoy on our rides.

Rich and I even got to have some time to ourselves and went on one of the funnest dates that we've ever been, we got to do the zip trek. We did the Eagle tour, five ziplines including a 2200 feet one that drops over 20 stories. We both loved it!






One of the days we made our way into the rec center to have some family fun in the water. This rope swing provided the most fun for the day, we all ended up doing it, even Micah.



Nicki and Manda.



Kaitie, Spencer and Taylor practically spend the entire time swinging into the pool.


On Saturday Morning, Christy got out her camera and took some family pictures of all of us. I am glad that we were able to have a picture of just Rich and I taken as well since that doesn't happen often.

Micah was excited to get some Grandpa Dan time.


When we weren't swimming or going from one mountain to another we could mostly be found at Cows or The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory doing this:







Aunt Annie and Uncle David took the girls for a ride at the top of the Whistler Mountain so that they could have a snowball fight. Here they are on their way up.

Its so amazing when you go to Whistler in the Summer because you get to do all of the summer things such as going swimming in one of the many lakes around there, or you can go to the top of the mountain and play with snow. The best of both worlds!

Nicki and Uncle Phil.

The cousins had such a blast playing together. Here we have Spencer, Braden, Nicki and Elizabeth.

Lastly, I just had to post this picture of little baby Ray. Isn't he adorable? Good job Shelly and Joey, you did great!
