We were a little slow to get up on New Year's Day, as well it should be. But once we got going... we couldn't be stopped. It was Jen's 35th birthday, and we needed to do it up right. So we cooked up some breakfast burritos (God bless Noel). Erika, I'm just warning you that Jen and I have plotted to kidnap your husband so we can keep him as our personal chef.
Jen opened some sweet gifts and then we were ready for an adventure. It was the warmest day since we'd been in Keystone (19 degree... sauna weather). Jen taught Caroline some moves on the bunny slopes, Rafe got jacked by a skier and busted his tail bone while snowboarding, and Melissa and I tore it up on the hills and (unintentionally) moguls. Seriously, Melissa and I rocked the slopes. Meanwhile, Nanci, Allan, Erika and Noel raged on snow mobiles. I'm hoping to figure out how to post Allan's video of their race, because it looked AWESOME.
We all rushed to get ready for our fancy New Year's dinner... FONDUE! The Bavarian restaurant was two gondola rides from civilization and I thought half our group was gonna jump ship in the middle of the ride. It did kind of seem like we were being carted off somewhere... somewhere awesome, it turned out. Hans and Liddy (their real names) brought us tons of food, the Oompa Band got the whole place doing the chicken dance and sang Happy Birthday to Jen (in a slightly embarrassing manner). After all that, the 25 minute gondola rides home were pretty festive. Now EVERYBODY chicken dance!!!
