12 runs

We made it more than a week without a visit to the emergency room so we decided to test our luck and we headed up to the snow to ski 'in the mountain' as Caedan would say. It was a beautiful day at the pass. With so much sun we decided to buy Caedan a pair of goggles to protect his eyes. Caedan loves his new pair of goggles. Ceadan was an awesome skier today. He has also become a little cocky. He was jumping around while skiing. He skied 12 runs and by the end he could hardly stand up.

We ski down with a rope tied to Caedan to make sure that he goes slowly and is under control. The problem with this is that you end up snowplowing down the entire run. After doing this 4 times my legs were tired. I don't know how Robert did this 8 times today.

Olivia has also become a very good skier. She loves to ski over the jumps and she is very fast. My favorite when skiing with Olivia is when she skis past me and yells 'I will meet you at the slow sign'. What is she saying about my skiing ability?

This is Caedan about 5 minutes after we left the parking lot.
While we were eating dinner once back home he put his ski boots and helmet on and asked to go skiing. I think that he might like skiing just a little bit!
