More Skiing

Today was supposed to be a family ski day, but Andy ended up getting a nasty head cold this weekend so I fulfilled the promise to the kids by taking them to Snowbird solo.  It was a fantastic day.  Kendall was determined to do everything that her big brother did - including following him over jumps and through the trees!  She does NOT want to be left behind!

Here are some pics and video from our day:

 My happy little skiers!

Thankfully Riley didn't mind riding up the lift alone all morning!

My flying sofa buddy - she almost cleaned me out of Hershey kisses today!

Waiting on Kendall and mom


Thankfully Kevin met up with his nephew Tristam (who is also friends with Riley) after Tristam finished with his ski practice.  We all had lunch together after a few more runs.  After lunch Tristam and Kevin took Riley out for a few runs.  They went up to Mineral Basin and then took Chip's Run across to get over to Baby Thunder - one of Riley's favorite areas.  They also went up to Bassackwards - which is one of my favorites!

Kendall and I continued practicing on Chickadee until the boys were done.  Riley was so grateful to ski with Kevin and Tristam - he talked about it the entire time on the Snowbird bus to the car!

Andy is thankfully starting to feel better but was pretty bummed to have missed out.  He was looking forward to it all of last week.  Maybe we'll head up again next weekend.
