Skiing

We went skiing!!!!  Yes that is amazing for our family since we are definitely not skiers.  This was my 2nd time, the kids first time and Sam's 4th or 5th time.  Seth and Sarah's school was heading up on their annual ski trip so we decided to tag along, mostly because it was $15 for a lift ticket and rentals, we couldn't pass it up.  We headed up there and actually had a great time.  Seth and Sarah did really well and after I actually learned how to stand up after I fell down (yes that was what I couldn't master the last time I went in college, remember Sarah?) I did much better.  We took the kids up the lift at the end, which was a little rough because Sarah fell off at the beginning and forgot to get off on the top (thank heavens they stopped the lift both times) and people told us the wrong way to go (it wasn't exactly the wrong way, just not the easy way).  Seth did fine but Sarah got a little freaked out since it was steep and tight turns, but with some help of a friend and Sam we got her down half way and then she was able to come the rest of the way by herself.  Sam and Seth went down several more times and got even better.  We had lots of fun and here are some pictures of our day!!
