So we finally thought that this year was a good year to finally start teaching the girls how to ski. Not that I really want them to be skiers by any means because I really want them to be tiny snowboarders. But because snowboarding is hard, especially for the very first time to be on the slopes, we decided it best to try them on skies first. This way they can get used to the whole idea and then we can switch them over. I get so excited thinking about our family in the future going boarding together. It was something I did with friends growing up but never with family, especially my parents. My best friend growing up always went with her dad and I just thought that would be awesome. Plus I think it is a good idea to be able to do something with your kids when they are older that THEY think is cool that can always involve the whole family. I think it would have been so AWESOME to go snowboarding with my mom growing up.
The girls did pretty well for their first time. It was a beautiful day, sunny and warm. They had fun and say they want to do it again. That is what we were looking for. Whether they would like it or not and want to pursue it. Too bad I have never skied before in my life so I have not the slightest clue as to how to teach them. Enter in TJ (who knows how to do just about everything). Hopefully next year we can put them in ski school. Which means I should probably start saving up.
I mean do they make any smaller skies????
Lexi just sat on the sidelines and cheered. Next time I will be more prepared and bring some snacks along.
