We took Kenton up skiing for the first time last Friday. It was opening day at Sundance and we wanted to be there. Kenton wasn't too happy with us layering him with all of the gear, but as soon as he was dressed he was okay. We rented the smallest ski boots available and the shortest skis from Park's Sports in Orem and headed out. There was quite a bit of snow at Sundance, considering how much they usually have.
We hiked up to the rope tow and I picked him up, grabbed onto the tow bar and headed up. I put Kenton down between my skis and sat back to have him get a feel for the skis. He instantly enjoyed them and would talk, sing, and laugh. I took him down the first run nice and slow. He loved that too! Mandee took him down a couple of times with her snowboard. It was a lot of fun! We all had a good time and we now know that Kenton likes skiing! We hope to take him a few times this year. We even got a snowboard for him. That might be a little later though...
