Ski Trip

Utah! I can't believe I made it to UTAH and back with the kids in one piece. We decided to meet up with my Dad, Pam, my aunt Alicia, and a big crew of other relations for a ski trip. And guess who's never been skiing before? Me. I was happy to go just to hang out with the family. The rental house was amazing, the weather was pleasantly cool and sunny, and the surroundings were jaw-droppingly beautiful, especially coming from the flatlands of Ohio.

Kyle's a skier from way back, but Isabel and I both tried our very first lessons. Isabel did wonderfully; she spent the whole day in a class with other kids and did a great job. I, on the other hand... well, maybe I am too old to learn new tricks. The highest praise my ski instructor could offer was to say that I was "getting good at getting up after you fall". Oh well, at least I can say I tried it. We also went snow tubing. Zak was able to participate in that, and even I can't mess up sliding down a hill.
