skiing & sledding

we rented ski equipment for kennedie in november. we took her up to monarch, the ski area just outside of salida & where i grew up skiing. it was less of her skiing & more of mommy carrying her dead weight down the hill ;) so we decided to try again at the end of our winter break. we stuck close to home & just headed over to the hill behind costco.
of course, once we got there & she saw all the kids sledding, she no longer wanted to ski; but we convinced her to give it a try just for a little bit. instead of trying to 'teach' her how to ski, we just had her try to stay up! she did great & had fun, but didn't forget about sledding.
p.s. i've decided that perhaps i am not the best person to try to teach my daughter how to ski - if anyone is interested in the job please let me know :)


  sledding was fun too! kennedie loved going down the hill with daddy. they went really fast & screamed & laughed the whole way down! when it was mommy's turn to go with kennedie, we ended up with snow in our faces & ended up rolling out of the sled. needless to say, mommy was not asked to go again. quade got in on the action too & went down with daddy & kennedie a couple times :)
