Hitting the slopes







Heidi and I took the boys up to the bunny slope over at Loon. Riley has skied before so she was pretty confident that he would be able to go solo this year without the harness and she could give Colton a few lessons instead. Riley had a few falls starting out but before we knew it he was a master of the bunny slope and flying down the mountains (he beat me down the mountain a few times!). Heidi took Colton down with the harness a couple thousand times and before we knew it they were hitting the real chair lift. He did not want the day to end, I know he loved it because his tolerance for the cold was at an all time high. No ski outing is complete without hot chocolate in the lodge...it was so warm we even sat on the bench while it snowed, drinking our hot chocolate and watching the skiers. Colton wanted to go back the next day and the next...it was just way too cold though the rest of the weekend though to get him back up there...maybe we can squeeze a short ski trip in before Winter is over so he can get his fix. :)
