We skipped out on the torrential downpours that plagued most of the Northeast this weekend and traded up for a few wet-flurries and lots of slope-side fun. Our Little Guy clicked on a new pair of skis for the first time and after two short lessons was rocking the magic carpet slope. I think his favorite part was riding up the chairlift. That and the obligatory cups of hot cocoa, of course. Oh, and the jumps. He was all about the jumps, which were performed while skiing down a small slope between my legs and in the safe embrace of my arms. Little Miss was as thrilled as can be to have the complete attention of two doting Grandparents. And Mom and Dad were grateful for some ski time with siblings and friends in a happy world of winter white.

sounds so wonderful! i never got the hang of going down a hill fast (i fall over on little ones when i cross-country ski), but your weekend sounds perfect.
That sounds fabulous! I’ve always wanted to try downhill skiing. And your little guy looks so cute in his ski gear.
Brave soul, and kudos, for getting your kiddos on skis!! We’ve yet to try it, but this inspires me, for next year…. (Did I mention, how cute?!!)
oh dear. that is adorable.
Wow! They look so grown up! š Sounds like good family fun! š
Oh fun! I love the tissue holders and your thoughts below.
that boy!! A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. If my brain were working today I’d come up with terrific adjectives for all of those letters!
btw – loved your tissue holders.
Every time I see this pic I laugh. They look like they are discussing their gear or making plans for dinner…It is cute!
