Today Sammy tried skiing for the first time. He did great! He went up the chairlift several times and he learned to turn and do a wedge stop, although he realized pretty quick it was also pretty effective to just sit down when all else failed. It was Lindsey's third time skiing, she went twice last winter, and she started right where she left off - going up the chairlift. She really progressed with her turns and skied much more in control this year.
Blain stayed home with Carley and since it's been exactly a month since my surgery, skiing is out for me for this winter. But our good friends Cindy and Brian came along to help with the kids. Brian tried snowboarding in the morning and it was his 4th time to try. After getting beat up too much by the mountain, he came to the decision that snowboarding was not for him and switched to skies in the afternoon which he enjoyed much more. Cindy was on skies the whole day and looked like she was having so much fun I got a little jealous I couldn't join them. But it was fun watching the kids and Cindy and Brian coming down the mountain. And you can't beat the scenery!
