We Can Ski

We left on Thursday, February 25th, Daddy’s birthday at 9:26 p.m., after out baths.  Because we don’t like to ride in the car, we slept!  We woke the next morning to Denver, and after breakfast, Lilli got sick as we got to the top of our first mountain.  After cleanup and drugging, we kept on toward Breckenridge in a snowstorm.  We arrived to a snowy village and our hotel about 9:30.  We rested, rented skis and looked around.  Moma and Papa come in that evening and we all went to dinner at the local Brewery.  It was great fun! 

The next morning we started by taking on the bunny hill.

Assignment #1: Ride the magic carpet and learn to snow plow (make a pizza)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the end of that day, we were tired but hooked.  We looked forward to the next day of ski school when Jackson went up on the bigger mountain and even started weaving through the trees.

Assignment #2: Beyond the bunny hill lies the great mountain... and therein lies allure

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We Didn't Neglect Our Fashion

Jackson was one to point skis down and never look back

Cautious, yet successful, Emma advanced to the mountain on Day 3

Sometimes joy would take over and an occassional angel was in order

We are very happy that our parents let us ski.  Lilli spent some fun time with Moma while the rest of us were on the mountain.  She also had her own adventure, ice skating!  We have some exciting video to share of our snow-slicing action which Mommy hopes to post online once she learns how to do it.  We know in a few years, we’ll be teaching her things. 

We had to leave on Monday, March 2nd.  We left while it was still dark and did a great job watching movies and hanging out for the 12 hour drive.  We can’t wait to go again!
