Okay so once again we have had one crazy Saturday! Porter and Chad woke up really early to go ice fishing. Porter loved it, and Chad was proud of him. He didn't complain about the walk, being cold, or getting bored! He loves to be with his Daddy. The fishing was slow, so Porter started making friends with the other people fishing around them. He buddied up with a group of older guys, and one of them had a bite, and he let Porter pull it in. He even let Porter keep the fish! They had a few other bites, but all of them got away.
When they got home we hurried to get ready for another adventure.... SKIING! One of our good friends use to be a ski instructor, and he offered to get a group of kids together that hadn't skied yet, and teach them how. We have been wanting to get Porter skiing, but haven't been able to do it yet. We decided this was as good of a time as any, so we all packed up and headed to Powder Mountain for a night on the slops. I went to watch in the lodge with Trace and Roc... I'm not exactly sure the word LODGE is very fitting though. They have this really small cafe that is warm, but old and little. We had way to many people in there, but it was still fun being with friends. Trace and Roc both did great... Now for my little ski bums!! They started with a introduction to "Pizza" and "French Fries". Porter picked up on it really quick, so Adam told Chad to start on a little hill. Again, Porter nailed the little hill quick, so before I knew it, him and Chad were headed up on the tow rope. After the first crash Porter was done with that... Cried most of the rest of the time. :) He did great, but I'm not sure he'll let us talk him into it again very soon, but I'm sure we will try! He did go all the way to the TOP, and he made it back down safely. Even though he didn't love it, he did fantastic. He was even starting to learn how to turn!
Trace and Mayci hangin out in the Lodge (or I guess from now on I'll call it the "grease pit"??)
Roc Played with his toys most of the time!
Porter after a long night of skiing! Boy it feels good to take of all that gear!
