We Ski Free at Three



What's almost better than going skiing?
Having your kids beg you to take them skiing!
Sam and I were so happy when Monday morning the kids came into our room and jumped on our bed asking us "when are we going skiing?"
We looked at each other and said, "Today!"
So we took advantage of Alta's "Ski free at 3:00." Even though it's only from 3-4:30, we figured this was a perfect gap for the first time back on the slopes, especially for Will. And especially since Quincy was coming along.
I can't tell you how awesome it was.
Everyone has visions or dreams of things that they want in life. One of mine has been to have my whole family skiing together and everyone loving it! This definitely happen today.
I think it is such a great family activity that we can do our whole lives together.
The kids skied awesome and Quinny had a great time in the backpack. And it was REALLY cold, like 17 degrees. No whiners, couldn't believe it. We were especially proud of Will...he's just a little guy and remembered everything he learned last year.

The kids wanted to go again so we also went yesterday with our friends. It was snowy but still lots of fun.
I have a feeling we will be doing a lot of Alta skiing at 3:00. This is not a cheap sport...especially with 4 kids!
Good Times.
