Luca's first day on Skis

CLICK HERE to see a few pictures of Luca's first day on skis.



After a session of kicking and screaming in the house as we dressed him in all his snow clothes, he calmed down and got excited to get out there. Once outside in the snow he forgot all his worries. We were actually surprised how willingly he clicked into his ski boots and skis - not at all traumatic like the ski pants he hates putting on. Luca loved getting on the "people mover" that brought us up the bunny slope. I thought for sure he would be a little nervous about that, but he was totally calm and commented "Its just like at the airport!" Once we started down the mountain he wanted to go FAST!!! and kept begging me to go faster, "SPEED, MOM!!! SPEEEEED!!!!" We did about 10 runs then went into the club for some hot chocolate and lunch. He was exhausted - and so was I!!!
