Gabe Hits the Slopes

What a great day! We took advantage of the beautiful weather and took Gabe skiing for the first time. Our good friends, Aaron and Erin Yost, are great skiers and kindly offered to give Gabe a fun and memorable introduction to skiing. He had a BLAST! He smiled from ear-to-ear the entire time.

Here's the warm-up run on the small slope next to the Snowflake chairlift. Not an ounce of fear on his face...

First time on the chairlift. Thanks to Aaron's careful instruction, he looks like a pro.

Look at that little guy! He already skis better than his mom and dad. We are going to need some lessons if we plan on keeping up with him next season.

Here's 3-year old Stella - a born skier! Doesn't she look tiny?

Did I mention Gabe had fun? Look at that smile! ....Look at those great coaches!

My favorite picture! He looks like he's been skiing all season. He made it to the bottom of the run without falling.....success!
Little Hudson - This is the BEST baby! He was totally content hanging out in the pack soaking up the great outdoors.
A short video clip of Gabe.

Aaron and Erin - Gabe will never forget the time spent with you today. We can't thank you enough.

He sure does look like a natural. He looks like he loves it too. I hope you all had a great Easter. As always I love to see the kids, they are getting so big.
