Desert Rats go skiing

My sister wanted to take the kids skiing when we went to ID and to be honest I wasn't so sure how it would go over.   My kids have not spent much time in snow and I thought skiing may be a bit much for a first time.  I was thinking they would just want a good snowball fight but when I asked them if they wanted to go they said they were up for it.  We got their gear and took off for the mountain  and when I turned around to see if they were having second thoughts, this is what I saw.  I guess this answered my question

Mckinna's happy but pooped.
Liam loved every minute, he seemed to take to it right away.

Good for them! I have been wanting to take my kids skiing for some time but haven't yet.

Kids take to skiing so well. My kids just love it. Watch out though - they will be begging to go more often, and it's not a cheap hobby. My kids are now into snowboarding - I'm sure that yours will too. How did you adults do?

I was about 6 or 7 when I started skiing, but haven't been in years! I loved it from the beginning, even when my older brother took us on a Black Diamond (face of the mountain!) on our first run after lessons! Gotta love older brothers!
