Our Ski Adventure at Winter Park Resort - January 2014

What a snowy adventure we had for Harrison and Declan's first attempt at skiing! We went up to the Winter Park Ski Resort for two nights and two days of ski lessons and it snowed the whole first night and day...and it was windy! But, they were both brave little troopers and went up the ski lifts and skied on the mountain with their instructors. Even though we signed up for semi-private half day lessons, they ended up getting private lessons since no one else signed up. Harrison and Declan both had fun skiing, but it really wiped Declan out. He was exhausted! Harrison made it through three hours of skiing on both days...and Declan was asleep when we picked him up the second day. He did make it down 2 runs on the mountain before he fell asleep, though. The snow was a lot of fun and we had a great time on our winter adventure!

 Fueling up for Day 1 of ski lessons!

 Harrison jumped in every pile of snow he saw...and sank into a few, too!

 What a nice big brother!

 Getting geared up.



Skiing on Day 1...Harrison made it to Level 3!
These photos were taken at the little ski school hill, but Harrison and Declan both skied on the mountain most of the time.


 Heading over to the ski lift to go up the mountain on Day 2. 
Much better weather!

 A well-deserved snack after an exhausting two days of learning to ski.

Ski trip complete!
