I had forgotten how tiring it is just to get dressed for skiing. All the layers. Ugh! But we did it. Of course, after you are throroughly warn out from that you must go to the rental place and chase down your skis, poles, boards, helmets... Grabbed a bite to eat the the Bakery (been dreaming about their brownies for the last 3 1/2 years) for breakfast then we were off. Blake talked about taking some lessons but ultimately decided to start out with instruction from Logan and Chad and if he wasn't feeling it then he could take a lesson later today or tomorrow. No formal lesson needed. He picked it up rather quickly. The kids all headed to the Peach Tree lift and were off. Logan said that Blake face planted once but, other than that, not bad. It took the girls a while to get their snow legs back. It is really a lot of work to snowboard. Lots of falling down. Devin and I watched the kids for a little bit, took some pictures and then Chelsea and Tayte decided to go up Red Lady with us. I think it was too much too soon. They did a lot of stopping and resting on the way down. Tayte twisted her ankle on the lift this morning so between being tired and her ankle, I pulled her most of the way down. Break time!!
Back to Bakery for lunch. Good pizza!
Girls did Peach Tree one more time. Devin and I did Houston and another run. Devin only fell getting of the lift one time. Of course he took me down with him. Thanks! Now resting at the condo. It just wears you out. Walking in those stupid ski boots is the worst!!! Probably going into town tonight to get a few groceries and eat. That is, if we get out of bed first. Boys are still out hitting the runs. There is talk of going up Silver Queen and stepping up their game from greens to blues. We'll see how that flies!
