President's Day Weekend

We all enjoyed a long weekend with the President's Day Holiday. We spent the time as a family getting up skiing on both Saturday and Monday. The kids all enjoyed the skiing with Carter skiing down the bunny hill all by himself from the top of the lift. Kennedy got to ski on the back side of the mountian a lot.

Carter is still using his edgy wedgie, which keeps his ski tips together, and he complains when it is taken off. I am going to spend some time with him next trip up to the mountian. He needs to practice skiing without the wedgie. He does love the magic carpet, it is much easier than the lift and definately an improvement on the rope tow that I learned on.

Kennedy is really enjoying skiing on the backside of the mountian. She likes Lower Nugget the best of the runs we have done. She has also skied on Paradise, Wildcat and Bonanza which are all fairly steep and narrow. She does a great job getting down the mountian and is not afraid of any of the terrain.

Ryan likes to ski faster than Kennedy and he gets a bit frustrated that she does not try harder to keep up with him. However, he still enjoys going up and skiing. He had a sore ankle on Saturday so he only took a few runs but he went to the backside with Kennedy and me on Monday. He skied great doing good parrell turns and getting down the mountian quickly.
