So, we drove up to Winter Park which is about 2 hours away, rented a cute little condo and skied for 3 days! Mason did ski school the first day, and he did great! I was a little nervous on leaving him there because it was so cold! The high on Thanksgiving Day was 12 degrees!!! But we bundled him up in all of his gear and he did great on the bunny slope!
Isn't he cute all decked out in his ski gear?!?! |
Friday was our second day skiing, and Mason joined us that day on the slopes. He was a little hesitant of letting go of Paul's ski pole, but he did great. We even took a long run that we didn't realize was going to be as tough as it was, but he took it like a pro! He wiped out a few times, but he didnt' give up! We were all so sore on Friday..it's amazing what muscles you don't know you had until you go skiing!
Saturday was actually a warmer day...I think the high got up to low 30's, but when you are up on the mountain and the sun is shining (with all your layers of ski gear), it was actually warm! We ended up taking some of our layers off, so it was an awesome day! Mason took off down the slopes and there was no stopping him. I am so glad he enojoyed it! He said he is ready to go skiing again! Watch out Uncle Chris and Aunt Lindsay...he'll beat ya down the slopes when you come in January!
Here are some pics from our trip!

The little skier! |
We were on the ski lift...lol |
When we got back home on Sunday afternoon, it started snowing at our house around 5pm and it didn't stop. We got about 3 inches of snow Sunday evening and this is what the house looked like Monday morning...
Mason was real disappointed that he had school that day...gonna take him a little bit to get used to the fact that snow isn't a big deal around here. The whole city doesn't shut down...ha!
Hope everyone is doing great! We wlll be in Memphis in 2 weeks and 2 days...the countdown begins!
Love and miss everyon!
