Kate's First Ski Trip!

We went up to Boyne for a weekend of skiing and got Kate out on the mountain! It was so much fun.  We had been talking about skiing since we went up north over the summer, and have been talking it up as much as we could so that she wouldn't be scared.  We don't have skis for her, so Matt took her down to the lodge to rent some on Saturday morning.

Liv had a blast watching everyone go down the hill
ski boots, a.k.a. huggy boots

 Once they were back at the condo, all she wanted to do was get outside and ski! Matt held her between his legs the whole time, but she did an awesome job.  She rode the magic carpet up the first time, but then did the chair lift ("big swing") after that.  We went up and down the mountain a few times before lunch, and then a few more times again after Kate's nap.  She kept telling Matt she wanted to go faster, and she certainly did not want to quit for the day.  I'm not a hug skier, but being out there with our fearless little girl was pretty awesome.
