Another year, another Beaverfest

There are a lot of photos in this post because, well, the Beaverfest deserves it. Once again we headed to Beaver Creek this last weekend with a bunch of our close buds to ski, have a good time and cheer on the US Ski Team, (particularly Marco) at the Birds of Prey World Cup races. Another good time it was, I mean really, how could you not have fun with this group?

 A few of our group ready (and are we ready!) to head to the hill to watch the downhill. 

Curt in classic pink ski wear, Liz sparkling for the USA, Keelan, who once again hit it spot on with his fashion styling to be known as the Green Man the rest of the weekend, Shannon with an amazing new blue hairdo, and me.

 

We secured our section in the stands and are ready for the action.

 Some GoPro stuntmen, floating into the finish...they know how to kick it off right here!

 

Liz with cowbell ringing and her hair done up and flying in the wind, ready for some ski racing to begin!

 

We make it pretty obvious who we are cheering for!

 Curt got the local elementary school kids to help us rally the crowd.

 

Marco skied well, with a little bobble he finished in 18th place. We still love him.

 

The Marco Rocks Fan Club mobbing our favorite guy.

 

Billy Kidd and Marco chatting it up.

 

 The Green Man posing with Ted Ligety (the cut-out), not creepy at all, just another fan.

 

My little bro and me. 

 Just being somewhat famous, it's cool. I wonder how many Marco signatures are out there now?

 Me and my little Lizard, love this girl. Don't mind the bottle being passed in front of the camera or Marco post-race chatting behind us. With those model smiles how could the focus be anywhere else?

 Shannon and Curt find another pink fan in the crowd, a young spry cutie of 83 that Curt immediately start calling Cupcake and invited her to our club...I mean, with that outfit she definitely belongs!

 

Even Marco was a fan.

  

 AngBallz, LizDogBear and Mother Rena being cute and happy and super fan-alicious.

  

We did more than just cheer, we skied too. Curt was so awesome at skiing that he got Ted Shoaf's pass pulled and got kicked off the mountain, how appropriate.

 

 So we changed outfits and skied another day.

Curt and me ripping some icy groomers.

 

And we skated like Ice Queens.

Ang, me, Liz and Kate being pretty and talented.

 

Of course meal teams kicked butt once again this year, the girls Pizza Party vs. the guys Meatfest.

Lil Kari, Lizard and Ang serving it up in style.

 

And another crew took over prom, the theme RedNeck. We were happy to join them. 

Keelan and Meri reenacting a similar version of their meeting at the Beav a few short years ago.

 

Do Liz find her true match?

 

The Ganong crew, Paul, Ali and Jesse smoking and looking pretty red. 

And although we toned it down a little and didn't have an official award ceremony. Curt got to go home with the Beaverfest MVP trophy, mostly because...
1. He rallied kids to hold our signs so we didn't have to
2. He skied so awesomely he got his pass pulled
3. He looks really good in pink
4. He was the last one left in the condo
5. Keelan can't win it every year
6. And had room in the passenger seat of his car to buckle this beaver in for the long ride home
Yay Curt!

Now, that was a good time! Thanks Marco for kicking ass and being awesome. 

Until next year fellow Beavers...
