The Besser gang went skiing yesterday. We layered ourselves with smartwool, northface, lululemon, underarmor, craft, helly hansen, hot chillys and rei; we packed lip balm, two sets of keys, snacks, water, wallets, sun block, cds for the car, an iphone for pictures, and a ski harness for Quinn; we loaded up 5 sets of skis, poles, boots, hats, helmets, goggles, mittens, neck warmers, and jackets. The older boys and I skied a handful of fabulous runs; Quinn got his first taste of skiing with Grant behind him holding the reigns. The physical effort of gearing up and skiing with kids is like nothing else. The exhilaration of flying down the mountain on skis is like nothing else!
i'm impressed! it was COLD out! we are fair weather skiers with the girls. i totally hear you about the gear. i couldn't believe how much effort it took when we went! so fun though and they loved it. let's go together soon!
