Skiing at Spring Mountain

We finally got ourselves skiing this year! I don't know where the winter went! The boys both did fantastic. The skiing conditions weren't ideal - lots of ice and man made snow - but we actually became a "skiing family" today. We would ride the lift up and ski down without stopping for a victim of the hill! By the end of the night, it was Brad and I that had to keep up with Nate and Aidan. Aidan really became a dare devil this year and had that look on his face when he got off the lift...the "I'm gonna beat you down the mountain" look.

Nate tried poles for the first time! He was a little dangerous to those around him at first. Especially on the lift when he would hold the poles upside down by your face! He got the hang of them and really enjoyed using them!

This was actually an action shot taken early in the evening. Not the traditional way of skiing, but creative!

Brad and Aidan lookin' stylin!

It's so cute that you can all go skiing together! I'm glad they did so well, thanks for sending the video of Aidan.

What happens if Brad falls in the snow? Does he balloon up and have a reaction?
