Moms and Peanuts

I was so not looking forward to today....
Ski day
and I had to take my kids up because I was too late on the sign up in December
and they don't have enough room on the bus.
I drive them up so they still get to be in ski/snowboard school and then I ski with Rock.
Last time it was a lot of yelling at Rock to slow down,
a lot of snow plowing
and a lot of whining.
Plus this morning I was at the Dr. and got the diagnosis of
bronchitis,
on antibiotics and hopefully better by Monday,
the first training day for Wasatch Back.....
so now you know why today didn't have me all excited.

That was until I was up there, fulfilling my duty,
and I saw these awesome people!

Gretchen & Lucy and
Leigh Anne & Hunter
All the sudden,
I was in a much better mood
and thought how fun this is that
we (the Moms) are teaching these cute little peanuts
(Rock, Lucy and Hunter)
how to ski.

I just had my iphone,
so the pics aren't great,
but good enough
to lift my spirits!
The Hot Rods!
Hunter
leading Rock
to his first
JUMP!
No air
but sheer joy!
Rock and Hunter on the lift!
Giggling and making
a lot
of loud
noises!
Then we ran into this
peanut!
Nicco!
He was waiting for his Mom!
We took a little break,
restrooms, drinks and treats,
are always an
added bonus!
Hunter
was our awesome
photographer!
He did better than I did on the last shot!

Thanks friends for a great day! It was beautiful, but more beautiful with you in it! These kids will be doing the same thing some day!
I love that we all love this together!

so cute... and I guess this is the Utah equalivant of us teaching kids yachting and bush walking (hiking) with all the local dangerous plants. It's amazing that those wee kids can ski :) (PS lots of amazing skiing down here you know...)
