We spent January 26-29 at Massanutten Resort in McGaheysville, VA with our friends, The Prices. The house we rented was perfect for both families with plenty of room to spread out, grill out, and chill out. There were TVs in every room, a pool table, ping pong table, air hockey, foosball, a Wii in the boy's room and plenty of space to run around.
Despite the lack of freshly fallen snow, we managed to ski all day one of the days. Alex, Sammy, and Everett went to ski school from 9-2 while Brad, Amie and I tried to remember how to ski on our own. It was amazing how easily the kids picked up the sport. Alex loved it! The minute he got out of class he was ready to hop on the lift and show us all he had learned. We were so proud of him! Mom's classic move was doing the splits while exiting the ski lift, while Brad moved off the bunny slope to more difficult trails.
While we were skiing, Sam offered to watch Abby and Celia. They played games, went to the park, and out to lunch. We all met back up for tubing at 5. Tubing was awesome, but it went so fast that little Abby gave up after one run down the track. It's fun to ride the little escalator up the hill with your tube but all the bouncing on the way down did startle her.
That was a really long day, but the next day was much warmer so we had picked the best day for sure to do the snow sports. Go-karting was our sport of choice on day 2! Honestly, Abby is still talking about the go-karts and can't wait to go again. This resort is awesome, year round! There was plenty we didn't see and we look forward to going back sometime. We'd rent that house again in a heartbeat!
