Ski Trip

During Christmas break we took Jacob and Colton skiing at Sundance. This was the first time they had ever been. And they did awesome! We skipped the bunny hill and went up the next easiest. There were a few tears on the first trip down. But one trip down was all it took for them to get the hang of it. Colton skied slow and steady all day with his toung hanging out in concentration. Jacob was a little more daring and went on some bigger slopes with Rocky. It was such a great day. It was fairly warm and overcast. We got there when the lifts opened and stayed until they closed. It was so fun for Rocky and me to spend time with Jacob and Colton since most of our time is spent taking care of the younger ones. We must of heard "that was so fun" thirty times on the way home. I think we'll have to go more often.

Colton's first attempt.

Jacob's second trip down. Didn't fall once.
The smiles say it all.

It looks like you guys had so much fun. I bet it was nice to do something with just the older boys. You are such a good mom.
