Happy Weekend, my peeps! I hope your week has been great! It’s been a whirlwind here trying to get us all ready for our upcoming ski trip! As I’ve mentioned prior, we haven’t been skiing since before kids, so it’s been awhile! Once we finally found our ski gear, we realized that most didn’t fit because #kids. Ha! Anywho, 7 pairs of pants later, I found some that work and most importantly they are warm (fleece lined) and comfortable! It’s a bit of an investment to get a whole family prepped for skiing, but there are some great deals out there! Plus, for the adults, this gear should last us awhile and with kids, you can always pass down ski gear to younger siblings and friends. (PSA Target has great ski gear online for the kids and great price point! I linked all my kiddos’ gear at the bottom of this post!) I’ve gotten so many questions about what I’m bringing on the trip, so I figured I’d list it here for you! Here’s what I’m taking! I’ve linked the products based on what I own and what I am personally taking! We got a checklist from our local ski shop, which was so helpful with packing and preparing. I followed that list to create the list below! Here’s hoping I didn’t forget anything! Ha!

I’m sure I’m forgetting items, but anything we forget, I’m sure I can find there! Here’s to a great trip! I will do a follow up post about favorite restaurants, where we stayed, etc, once we return home! Have a great weekend and a great spring break! Safe travels if you are headed somewhere fun! XO!
