    I went back to skiing after almost a 10 year break! My 10 year old son and I started skiing 2 winters ago. It's some much needed mom & son time. We are really enjoying our time together, chatting during our ride up the mountain in the chair lift, relaxing during lunch etc. This season, hubby and daughter might try it and see what all the fuss is about. It will give us some much needed 'family time' during our busy live! I don't dislike winter as much as I used to :) Thanks for this awesome contest!

    My fiance and I love winter! He loves snowmobiling and I love skiing. We didn't get out to the Peaks to ski as much as wanted last year, maybe this will be the year! We would both enjoy the nice dinner date. We haven't ate at TOSH yet, but have heard great things. Also, oh how I would enjoy the spa package!!!
  13. Kate Periard Sunday - 02 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    2 years ago my husband bought me skis and all the gear for us to get into this sport. And so it began but only for one season, as last year I was pregnant! We can't wait to hit the slopes again and put my skis to use! Not to mention a nice night out for us new parents and some pampering is ALWAYS welcomed :)

    What an amazing prize package! I would love to spend some quality time with my family at the Peaks this winter. My boys are eager to learn to ski and seeing their cute rosy cheeks would be an added bonus!

    Looking forward to another snowboarding season because it's a great winter activity that keeps me healthy and active, it's a fun way to make the best of the chilly weather and it's also an activity that my husband and I can do together - he taught me to snowboard and now we head out every season together!!

    Finished liking all sites. We love this season it brings everyone together. Love skiing, toboganing and spending the day outside with the family then curling up around the fireplace with hot chocolate in our pj's watching movies. Nothing better!!

    I don't downhill ski, would love to cross-country ski though! Hubby has been wanting to teach the kids to ski, so if I won I might be tempted to go with the family. I think I could manage the bunny hill;) Amazing giveaway!!

    Awesome Giveaway. Winter is one of my favorite season.. I love everything about it. I love snow and the fresh air. I love bundling up the kiddos and doing anything that has to do with snow. I am not a good skiier and would love to be able to hit the hills more then once every four years and get my kids involved in the sport :)
  38. Nadine Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    Since having a child, we have had to cut back on some of our activities. My partner loves to ski! However, it hasn't been possible. This would be absolutely terrific! Thanks OVM! :)

    We spend the whole winter running from ski hill to ski hill with our two youngest children who are in the UOVSZ ski race program! Fortunately the 4 of us LOVE to ski and are blessed to be able to do this and enjoy such wonderful family times together. Winter is special to us because we know, come weekends, we are all going the 'same direction' and LOVING it!
  41. Tina Lyons Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    Sorry, a little trigger happy :) This is my 3rd year trying to learn how to snowboard... Hopefully I will get it down pat this year. We've never been, would love to get a chance to check it out
  42. Ally Hudder Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    My husband and I LOVE winter! We do pretty well everything there is to do outside during these frosty-white months - including skiing! Cheers to another great season coming up! (Let's all remember to do a snow dance...the rain is depressing!)
  43. Sarah Chippior Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    I can't wait to get back to skiing this year after only re-kindling my love for it in recent years! After always being a childhood memory, life got in the way and separated my family and I from the slopes. However, I have finally realized "play" deserves a spot in life with family and friends! What better way spend time with family and friends than on the ski hill!
  44. Jodie Chadbourn Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    We absolutely love to snowboard!!! Can't wait until there is enough snow for boarding this year!!
  45. Samantha S Monday - 03 / 12 / 2012 Reply
    My husband has been after me for years to go skiing with him! With a 10 month old, it can be tough to make the time! If we won, we would have NO choice but to actually go out and enjoy ourselves! :D It would be the perfect Christmas Gift for the two of us this winter season!

    My husband and I are avid outdoor winter goers! We love skiing and find it very relaxing! Last time we went skiing, we were at Mt. Tremblant with friends for the weekend! The following Monday, we came home and found out we were expecting! Everytime, I think of skiing I think of our little man and how lucky we are! This would be the BEST Christmas surprise for my husband :). And it would be a good way to get out of the house and be active!

    As the kids get bigger, winter is getting more fun each year. At 6 and 8 we can do tons of fun outdoor winter activities like skiing, skating and tubing!
