Ski Lessons

Had a great time up in Heavenly the last few days. Nate loved the snow. Told us he wanted to stay there forever. He was really sad when we finally came home. Two days of lessons. Mid-way through the first day they moved him up a levelas he was better than most of the beginners. Although by the end of the second day he was still having trouble paying attention. He just wants to go up the big hill.


It snowed overnight and left our car buried. Nate thought it was great. Loved seeing the icicles and throwing snowballs.

Patiently waiting...

Following the instructor at ski school. Parents aren't allowed as they are too much of a distraction. We did sneak in a few photos at lunch time.

Ready, Aim, Fire!!! Snowball's away.

Still doesn't quite know how to make a proper snow ball, they disintegrate after tehy leave his hand. Sort of like a shotgun burst.



Mom and dad had fun too. It was cold and breezy most of the time. Our first day, most of the lifts were closed, which limited the different runs we could do. The second day we were able to ski the whole mountain. Maria got tired around 2:30 and went to the Gondola to pick p Nate at 3:45. In the 90 minutes from 2:30 to 4:00 before the lifts closed, I was able to get in 9 runs. No lift lines, fresh powder, it was a great time. Can't wait to bring Nate back again.
