Whistler!

After all the Christmas festivities, John, Tyler, and I headed to Whistler with my girlfriends and their husbands.  Carly was on vacation at Nannie and Pop's house.  She had a great time with them, playing with Madison and Riley and generally soaking up some Nannie and Pop love.  We missed her, but I knew she wouldn't love being in the cold, and she was a bit too young for skiing. 

Tyler made the trip with us, which included his first flight.  He's a bit fussier than Carly was on flights, but overall he was great.  He slept a lot.  He still had a cold and was spitting up a ton, but other than that issue, I have no complaints.

While in Whistler, Tyler and I hung out in the condo or walked around with Jenny and Joe while the rest of the gang went skiing.  Anytime we ventured outside, we bundled Tyler up in his snowsuit. . . .

This is how he spent all his outdoor time.  It was pretty awesome, actually.  He stayed warm, and he couldn't really move in the snowsuit.  Most of the time he would fall asleep pretty fast. 

The mountains were gorgeous.  The skiing was pretty fabulous too, so I heard.

John and Jason.  Jason is one of my great high school friends and always joins us on these trips. 

Doesn't Tyler look cozy?  Or maybe just defeated! 

Like I said, he fell asleep almost every time in the Baby Bjorn.  Pretty funny. 

On the second day, Jenny, Joe, Tyler and I purchased sightseeing lift tickets so we could go to the top of the mountain.  We rode a covered gondola up the mountain and met the skiing gang for lunch.

After lunch we got a few group shots.  The girls - Laura, Lana, Jenny, and Amy. 

Here's our crazy expensive group shot.  It turned out well, so we had to buy it. 

After lunch, we boarded the Peak to Peak gondola which took us from the Whistler peak to the Blackcomb peak.  Pretty awesome views! 

At night, we spent a lot of time in a pub next to our condo.  We (Thomas) even convinced the pub to show the Arkansas football game for us.  Pretty awesome, except Arkansas lost.  

The whole gang. 

Tyler was great on the trip home.  We had a great vacation and really enjoyed the time with our friends.  Thanks Howard and Sue!
