David's First Ski Trip!

Thanks to the 8.5 inches of fresh snow we just got yesterday, and the fact that we're still on school vacation this week we were able to take David skiing today! He's been asking when he could go, but with the lack of good fresh snow, we didn't think it would be as good for his first try.

Daddy helps get the ski boots on his little feet.
Boots...check - helmet...check!  Now all he needs is some skis!
With his instructor, getting comfortable in the skis
Ready for a ride on the magic carpet to the top of the beginners hill.
No turning back now!
While I take some pictures of David, Daddy takes the other two to a snow fort with slides!
Going down the hill, feet in the shape of a pizza as Daddy called it!
A nice gentle snow plow!
Looking good David!
Shaun is King of the hill!
Evan and I had fun sliding on the hill while Daddy took a turn watching David's lesson.
Of course there would be some falls, but overall he did really well and is excited to try again soon!
