We all went to the ski hill the older kids were there on a field trip earlier in the day and the rest of us came to meet up with them. This will be Cordelia's first trip down the hill. She is very excited. She has wanted to try since last year. 
Here we go. I sure hope she is ready. She liked the tow rope. She chatted with me all the way up the hill every time. She wanted to go by herself but never actually got up the courage.
We needed some help in the beginning and at the end of our trip. We stayed on the bunny hill the whole night.
She can ski! It's sad to say how easy it is for her since she doesn't have far to fall. She wiped out a few times. Once she was clothes-lined by the tow rope and another time she hit a cone.
She is very proud of herself. She skied for about an hour and a half. She looks so happy now but within moments of finding out the ski hill was closing and we were going home and she burst into tears. Then she fell asleep and didn't get up until 9:30am the next day. The other kids were there and went snowboarding for the first time. You wouldn't know it since there are no pictures. Vince happened to be the photographer with a baby strapped to his back and as you can see I was a little busy myself. Next time we will have to get photos of them. It was a good time had by all.
