Eldora Ski Day!

I just came along to cheer and take pictures--and hang out with Gage while Brent skied for longer with Gavin--so I'll let Brent write the rest of this post.  But, I will say that it was a beautiful day to be in the mountains, and even I could have seen myself enjoying the slopes on a day like this one.  It was really special to see Brent sharing his passion and skills with his boys--and on only one ski!!!

Here is Gavin making his way down the mountain.  I (Brent) was trying to keep track of both of them but Gavin is able to ski somewhat independently on the smaller slopes, so I opted to mostly stay with Gage.

Above you can see Gage and I making it down the mountain.  This is the first day that Gage was skiing outside of a ski lesson and I got to take him out.  It was also the first time he had ridden the chair lift, so it had many significant moments.  The other interesting thing in this picture was that I had hurt my knee recently playing soccer and had to ski the entire day on one ski.

Here I am with the rowdy two-some.  It was actually a great sunny day and we had an awesome time together.

This picture is at the end of the day with Gage and I.  It was really fun to be able to ski with the boys. I look forward to many more years of skiing with them as they get better and we can move to more challenging runs.
