Ski Day



So Tyler skipped out on school and I skipped out on work and we went skiing. I had a great time being with my oldest boy. It was nice just to hang with him and be in his world for a day. Last year he snowboarded so it had been almost two years since he last skied. On the first run I was a little nervous about how he was going to do because he fell quite a few times. By the second run he was doing better, and by the third run he was flying past me egging me on. Luckily I never fell but he did. I think I did impress him with my no wipe out day. He loved going in the terrain park and going over the hills and on some of the features there. The kid is brave. By the end of the day he was flying through the slush and I was amazed. I love that boy of mine. When I was taking his picture on one of the hills he told me later he didn't like it because he didn't know how to pose to make it look good. Loved the day and love my son. Also you know when his mom doesn't come with us we will forget something--Lunch and sunscreen. I am going to look like one of those freaks who can't lie about where there were yesterday at work. I look like a red raccoon.

I think Ty did quite a good job posing--he is quite the handsome adventure man! He has now officially gone skiing two times more than me. What a fun dad to play hooky with your son!

Seriously, how did your kid get that old? I was in my 20s the first time I ever skied. Good job for introducing your kid to skiing dad!

We played 'hooky' a couple weeks ago and went skiing/snowboarding! I think you have more fun knowing you're supposed to be in school and at work...but you're really on the slopes instead! What fun Dad/Son bonding!
