Easter and Hut Trip

Sitting with the Easter bunny was a little better for Parker this year.  We went on a slow day so we had plenty of time for Parker to warm up to the bunny.  There is a fountain behind the bunny and knowing Parker loves to toss coins I got him to go to the bunny's area with coins to toss.  We worked our way up to him actually taking coins from the bunnies hand.  This was a 15 minute or more process.  Parker still did not want to come close when Nick and I sat down but after I snatched him up he was fine.  So then we just shifted out of the picture and left Parker sitting next to the bunny.  He froze but luckily did not scream.  He just kept saying "get down"....at least we are making progress as he did not cling onto us for his life and cry.

He really wanted that egg open

Yummy chocolate candy

I went on another ladies hut trip this year.  This time we went to Janets cabin by Copper Mountain.  We first hiked over and hour about1.5hrs up Copper Mountain ski runs just to find the trail head.  Once we were nice and warmed up from that we went on our way and after a total of 5.5 hours made it the 5+ miles to the hut.  The weather started out with light snow but we did end with some sun.  That evening the clouds rolled in again and after dumping more snow on us lasted during the trip down. It took us 3 hours to get back down the next day.  I had a fabulous time with a great group of ladies and cant wait for the third trip.

Finally Made it

Amazing just how deep that snow is
