One thing we definitely discovered during our Spring Break vacation is the fact that DD loves being outside in the snow. She spent countless hours playing in the backyard with her brothers and her cousin and took to skiing with a real passion.
We were going to start skiing on Tuesday, but it was snowing and VERY windy and cold so we decided to go sledding instead. DD ended up playing at the playground with DS#3 while the big boys took some sled runs. It was actually so windy and cold that we didn't even stay there very long.
DD took half day lessons on Wednesday and Friday but a full day on Thursday. She was skiing blue runs and bumps with confidence on Friday afternoon. We would have taken pictures or video but she was off and we simply had to keep up.
I have to say that if you are going to be in the Keystone-Breckenridge-Arapahoe Basin area and have small kids, you WANT to go to A-Basin for ski lessons. The instructors are fantastic and DD's instructor, George Collins, is particularly fantastic.
Don't worry, I will get to DS#2 and DS#1 as the week goes on.
