Ski Lessons



It warmed up this weekend. Yesterday we enjoyed sledding with my, brother, brother-in-law, his brother and briefly his sister-in-law and niece. There was a bitterly cold wind at the top of the sledding hill. Luckily we didn't spend too much time there. The sledding was great. We all had a number of wipe-outs.

Today Maya and Elias had cross country ski lessons again. It was a balmy 30 degrees with a soft snowfall. Hannah and I went sledding, again, while the other two skied. Hannah found a tree to climb (wish I had my camera with me then). Maya and Elias gushed, again, about how much they both like skiing. Both boasted that they only fell twice. Way to go guys.


The skis Maya is using this winter used to be mine and Elias is using skis that several of my siblings used long ago. Thanks Mom and Dad for keeping them around. Another generation is certainly enjoying using them.
