Hitting the slopes

So much to blog about, including several other weeks of skiing, but this is an easy one since it's all on my phone. The boys and I went up to Mission Ridge today and met up with some of Cal's buddies for a morning of skiing and what a day it was... about 4" of new snow this morning & 31 degrees. Cal did a lesson with his buddy Henry and his other buddy Ulrich was skiing with his mom & sis who joined the boys for a run. It's been such joy watching Cal learn to ski this season & he just loves it. And today after a couple warm up runs up the rope tow & down the bunny hill the instructor decided to take the boys up the chair lift, Cal's first time. I think I was more nervous for him, than he was. But he totally rocked it, and even rode up every trip with strangers while the instructor was with Henry. And even more special, that he got to share this first with his friends.
