Skiing
This last week we've been staying at a cabin near Huntsville, home of Snow Basin Ski Resort. In the spring, Snow Basin allows kids 6 and under to ski free, so we donned our snow gear for the very last time this season and took Amy and Ian for their first crack at skiing. It couldn't have been a nicer day. We skied in T-shirts. It's been since before Kenny and I were married that I've put on a pair of skis. I wasn't sure if I'd remember how but it came back pretty quickly ... Although my knees are sore from snow ploughing so much! Amy and Ian did awesome too. Our first run (down the bunny slope mind you) took an hour and a half! Yes. Too. Long. I was ready to take the kids home. But we mustered up the patience to go a second run and it was great. Every run they got better and better. Kenny thought they could handle a green run higher up the mountain so we ventured up there ... Probably not the best idea but it worked out in the end and we all made it down safe where we finished the day back where we were comfortable - on the bunny slope :). Here are some pictures of our adventure :

What a fun trip! The snow looks blindingly bright. The weather sounds perfect.
Did Amy and Ian fare equally well or was one better than the other?
It was blindingly bright! Hopefully nO permanent damage to my little ones eyes as they didn't have sunglasses! Ian had more of a knack for it from the get go but by the end Amy was catching up. I'm just glad that they still enjoyed it by the end and are anxious to try it again. Love you guys!
