SPRING BREAK....SKIING AND ON SAFARI




Spring Break
Charles, Jenny and Children visited us over their Spring Break. The activity for the week was skiing, skiing and more Skiing!
Family Skiing is not for the faint of heart.  Charles wears a backpack which by midmorning is filled with discarded goggles, gloves, heavy coats, socks, kleenex, lip balm, sunblock, cell phones, etc, etc, etc.
Keeping track of 5 pair of skis, 5 pair of ski boots, 5 pair of after ski books, 5 pair of poles and 5 helmets requires a lot of parental patience.
Jenny and Charles are masters of Family Skiing   



Taking a little break for some R&R



Everyone looks forward to lunch and mapping out the runs for the afternoon. Jack was able to ski every run with his family.....4 years old.






Skyler and Charlie took an all day lesson to learn to parallel ski.           They both improved tremendously. 




Spring skiing does not require heavy Clothiing
A short sleeved t-shirt and this jacket provide plently of Protection






Chuck and I skied one day with this family and were amazed at the children's skiing Ability

Reminded us of long ago days skiing with our own Family
No lessons for our children.....our older children taught and practiced with the younger Ones

We are big supporters of family skiing.  What other sport can every member of the family participate in Together?
