Let's Ski!

We took Ben skiing for his very first time today!  We headed out to Hyland Hills, rented Ben some ski's and got out on the hills!  He did great!  He REALLY wanted to take a ride up the hill, and wanted to take the cool jumps that he saw some skiiers and snowboarders doing.  We told him he's not quite ready for the jumps, but we did take one ride up the lift before we headed home.   We had so much fun that it "almost" makes me look forward to next winter!

Assume the position!





Riding up the conveyer belt - so much easier than a tow rope!










At the top of the "Mountain!"  Ben was so excited to
get to take the ride up!



What great family fun!




Ben's "ski face" - heading down the Blue run!
 He's not afraid of the hill! 


 


All done!  Look at how cute he is!




End of day treat - well earned!



At the end of the day Ben said "It wasn't that fun, because I didn't get to do any jumps." Maybe next year Ben!
