We officially booked our ski trip to CO with the Jacobsons, so we decided that "we" probably should try out some hills before hitting up the mountains.  AP, being the former ski instructor, of course has mad skills.  BP has been boarding for years, and is quite confident in his abilities.  GP skiied once, in 6th grade, and is pretty sure she can figure it out. HP can't wait to try, and really wants pink and purple skis.  

The first day on the slopes was a huge success!  We fell down, but kept getting up (with assistance).  The boys were incredibly patient and helpful with their new learners.  

 And, they have a bar.  We will be back 💯!
