Deer Valley 2011

We had such a fun opportunity to go up to Deer Valley with my family last weekend. There was an auction for the Young Women in my parent's ward and my dad won the auction for our neighbor's awesome condo in Deer Valley for a week. It was absolutely gorgeous! I loved being up there in the summer time and the weather was totally perfect. Eric and I had school and work during the week, but we were able to go up and enjoy a weekend with everyone and had the best time.

We took a beautiful walk up to the Silver Lake Lodge and hiked up the mountain a little ways. It was so pretty! PS please ignore how translucent my skin looks next to my negro sisters!

Eagle pride haha!

We went up to the Alpine Slide and had so much fun!

Syd went a little too slow for Erin's liking :)

My dad was getting pretty into it!

We also went on the Alpine Coaster, which was so much fun! It is pretty much a roller coaster that goes down the side of the mountain, through all of the trees and the lovely wilderness. It's a peaceful ride up to the top, and we were all surprised at how fast it was on the way down! Super fun.

Enjoying being one with nature!

A lot of our trip consisted of this- games! This is one of my favorites, Ticket To Ride. If you have not played this, you HAVE to try it! It is seriously so much fun!

On Sunday we went to the brunch and Stein Erickson Lodge, and it was truly one of the most tasty and amazing brunches I have EVER seen. We had so much fun taking trip after trip to each buffet table and just laughing at how full we all were after!

I am so grateful to have a family that I love so much. My sisters and parents are seriously my best friends (after Eric, of course!), and I treasure all of the time we get to spend with them. Love you guys!
