Slopes for Jan 1st

Last year, D&K took up snowboarding and skiing.  D struggled with the snowboard while K flourished with his skis.  The boys were bummed when the season ended after only going a handful of times.

We typically watch a movie on New Year's Day but we veered away from our usual and decided to hit the slopes instead.  It was too beautiful a day to waste being indoors and with the kids ski camp/lessons starting shortly here, it was the perfect day to take them to the ski hill.

While K went down the bunny hill all by himself, Hubby & D took a private lesson as neither have ever been on skiis.  By the end of their hour, both boys were pros and the three of them had a blast!  It was 7 hours well spent, if you ask me.

And where was I this entire time?  Enjoying watching the boys have fun and chatting it up with a girlfriend who happens to bring her kids to the slopes as well.  This momma unfortunately doesn't do anything sporty.

Boys all geared and set to go!

D all red and flushed from the wind and sun!

K not wanting to return his skis or end his day just yet.
