Let the skiing begin!

This year was a bit different as we had Mila to take care of in addition to skiing, so either Mama, Daddy, or Sarah stayed in the lodge at the slopes taking care of her while the others skiied on their own or with Jacob. We were so thankful for all Sarah's help during the 2 weeks! And for letting us stay with her at her condo!

Jacob picked up skiing where he left off last season, and was off the straps by day 3! And after nearly 2 weeks of skiing he was able to ski down any blue run and even a few blue/blacks and one black diamond. We are so proud of him and had a great time skiing with him. For those of you familiar with Mammoth, his favorite run was off of chair 12 - White Bark Ridge. He loved going off the jumps at the top. We have a few videos of him going down the run and the jumps. Will hopefully get them uploaded soon.
