Doesn't it look like they are having fun? Apparently they were miserable...
We made our annual trek to Northstar at Tahoe for the week after Christmas. As we were getting our snow gear on, we realized that the ski pants Ryan was supposed to have grown into wouldn't button and the new ones we bought Andy last week were mysteriously too small...so Dave took the girls up the mountain and I took the boys to the Village to get some new gear. We met them later and had a gorgeous ski day...along with about a billion other skiiers!
The three younger kids preferred to play in the snow and Ryan wore shorts whenever I didn't stop him. Dave and I decided that while we planned to ski three days, they only had to ski two. As I write this, I am thinking "had" to ski?!
Dave, Andy and I had a blast skiing nearly all blacks and loving the fresh coat of powder.
Oh yeah! That tiny ant doing a spread eagle is me. 
They are actually great skiiers...just lacking a little confidence. It took me a little over an hour to get Ryan off the run when he fell. A little to ambitious, perhaps? I am just grateful that we had terrific weather and that no one got hurt.

okay - we're gearing up to go. I have a love hate relationship with the snow. I love being there, but I always worry about getting hurt and I HATE the hours to get in and out of our clothes and gear!!
Getting ready is definitely the hardest part! Good luck!
