Hitting the Slopes at Alta

We decided to take Madison skiing for the first time this year. Paul and Robin were going to Alta with Jazmine so we decided to tag along with them. The last hour of the day you can ski for free so we took Madison, Blake and Hailey up with us. It just happened to be that a storm came rolling in so it was cold and snowing. Madison was very excited to give it a try though.

Paul and Jazmine took the lead with Madison and Robin behind them.

Off they go

This is Hailey second year and she was the best sport and lasted the longest. She skied with Uncle Paul and Daddy when everyone else went in to get warm.

Blake thought he was such and old pro and got sick of waiting around for everyone. He kept trying to ski up the small slope to get us to hurry, which eventully wore him out.

Alta doesn't allow snowboarders so it was Todd's first time skiing also.

Blake wanted to show him how. Todd did good of course but is going to stick with snowboarding.

The little girls didn't last very long. It was way too cold and windy. Blake wimped out too so we hung out at the lodge more than we skied. Good thing it was free.

Warming up with hot chocolate in the lodge.

Maybe next day we can ski when it is sunny out.
