Monday was MLK day and a homeschool discounted ski day in Boone. We took the
opportunity and went. The kids and I skied with Grandma and Grandpa watching.
The first half of the morning was not so fun. We were on the rope tow going
down the bunny hill over and over. Every time up the rope tow a kid would fall
and we would not get all the way to the top. It was such a struggle and I was
losing my patience. I really wanted to get the kids off the bunny hill and
finally enjoy the real hills and chair lifts. Jake and Jayden were skiing so
good and Luke had gone down the hill 3 times by himself. I tried to get them to
the chair lifts. I almost had Luke on the chair when he pulled away screaming.
There was no getting him up to the top. Jake and Jayden got to the top and
Jacob froze, for a very long time. I
convinced him to go down, but he was so nervous and did not enjoy it at all. I
was not enjoying myself and did not want to go back on the rope tow hill. The
boys took a break with the grandparents and Jayden and I went down the big
hills a few times. After a break we all went back out and the kids got really
good and comfortable on the bunny hill. Jayden and I took turns on the big hill
after my parents left. At the end of the day Jake and I went down the big hill
twice. He went pretty fast and enjoyed it.
