It's Almost Time!

 

The weather is getting colder (it was 28 out when Dave and I went on our walk today) and there's been frost on the ground. This can mean only one thing: time to prepare for ski season! xo

At Their Winter Home

And so begin our weekly trips to the mountain! The mild temps of today were too good to pass up so we put lessons aside for the day and hit the mountain after breakfast. It was not nearly as crowded as I was expecting it to be, and the girls were able to get in about six runs before we needed to head home. When they returned after their final run of the day Grace told me that a gentleman who they passed after they got off the chair-lift said to them, "Let me guess...homeschoolers?!" The girls were super surprised that he guessed correctly! Such a nice change from the usual question of "What? No school today?!"  that we get all too often. xo

Getting Ready

It's that time of year again! Off they go to turn in last seasons skis and be fitted for new skis, boots and bindings for the upcoming ski season! The countdown to opening day is on! xo
