We're ready!
Later in the day the boys talked me into going up the chairlift with them. Bobby didn't master stopping yet so they couldn't persuade him.
I really don't like being on this chair lift Tristan.
I don't like heights!
It's a long way down there.
Gulp, ok down I go and I didn't even fall on the long run down. I didn't attempt to take pictures going down!
Tristan and Colin had an intermediate lesson while DH and I had a beginner lesson. Still couldn't convince Hayley or Trevor to ski. Hayley was massively helpful running messages to the little boys when I couldn't due to being in my class. So it was kinda good that she didn't want to ski! She was taking some pictures but for some reason most of them came out super blurry or fogged up. My camera does have issues which only I am used to so that was likely the problem.

You'll be fine Mummy.

I made it to the top without falling out and breaking a limb. Yes I was more scared of the chair lift than skiing.
Ready Mom...
Get Set..... (COLIN where is your helmet!?)
Come on, Let's Go!

It was a green to blue trail which I think was a pretty good accomplishment considering I haven't skied since I was a teen.

Have you received the GP books yet for English? How do you like them?
Glad you and Bobby are skiiing too!
I received the GP English books about a week ago. At first glance they look great! They lend themselves very well to mini units. I was worried that I'd chosen "too young" for my younger boys by starting with Junior English 1 but it looks perfect for them and has interesting topics. If it proves to be too easy over time we'll pick up the pace and start book 2 mid-year. I'm looking forward to trying this when we start our new year.
GOOD JOB! I was never able to get off from the lift without falling. I've only skiied 2x and both the year I turned 40... haven't tried it again since.
I felt pretty good about this accomplishment. I was pretty scared of the lift at first! part of it might have been a Mama Bear thing. I didn't want the boys to b trying harder runs and maybe not going down the right trail at the top! I don't need kids in their first year of skiing accidentaly going down a double black diamond trail!!! They wanted me to go with them and I kinda wanted to learn so it was good it all worked out.
