Hyrum the skier

Dad, Decca & I took Hyrum skiing for his first time during Christmas break. Dad got him private lessons with Angela Bovee (from the Singles Branch in Albion). He liked it and figured it out pretty fast!!
 The hardest part about the day is that as you ride up the "Magic Carpet" on the bunny hill, the temperature was perfect to form ice on your skis or on your boots. We had to chip at the ice every time we got to the top before we put on our skis! I'm in the yellow, Hy is on the ground, Dad is in the red.


 Woo hoo! Look at him go!
 Ski buddies ;)
 Decca & I. Are we on a black diamond or the bunny hill? You decide :)
So, Hyrum and I went two more times after this during the season. He rode the magic carpet the next time and just kept getting better and better. We went up again with Decca and Dad and started riding the ski lift. Hy did GREAT! He went down Milk a few times and raced Grandpa the last time. Apparently, Hy won. He was getting a little faster than his mom wanted to see, be he was doing awesome! Can't wait to take him next season!
