Skiing...again

This weekend we were able to get back up to the cabin. It has been 4 weeks since we had been up there, so it was great to get there and focus on the family again. Saturday morning we were up early again and headed to the mountain. We knew it would be a crazy day there since it was "Winter Carnival" at the mountain...and it WAS! Combine a fun weekend full of activities with 15" of new snow....crazy! Hailey was very nervous and didn't want to use her poles, but by lunch time her instructor got her to use them and she LOVED IT! And I was so happy to hear that she was LEADING the class down the mogul runs! They were going down all blue runs by the afternoon. Her teacher had so much good stuff to say about her and we were SO PROUD of our little girl!! Way to go Hailey. Her closing statement...."I want to be in the Olympics someday!" Oh no!

Ryan had lessons again too. He is loving it and keeps asking when he can try snowboarding. He thinks you have to be 12, and I like letting him believe that for right now. Not sure if he will be okay with staying on Miami Beach for his remaining 2 days of lessons or not, but next year he will for sure be ready to hit the rest of the mountain.
