When in Calgary...

When in Calgary, let's learn to ski!  We got back from our beautiful and snowy visit to Canmore and decided that it was time to give this "skiing" thing a try.  My lessons would be on Wednesday nights for 5 weeks (beginning on February 20th)...beginner class with all ladies.  My instructor, Alison, is 23 years old and has been skiing since she was 5.  Oh my!  Here I am after lesson 1...still alive and still smiling!  I'm definitely not a natural, but hope to have some fun!


Ben's lessons started on Sunday, February 24th.  Same deal as my lessons...90 minutes each week for 5 weeks.  Greg took him, and he had a great time!  He was so proud of his "pizza" (all you who ski should know what I'm talking about there) and loved the "magic carpet ride".  It's a busy time on the hill for a lesson...he's in the middle of these pictures with the blue jacket and orange/black helmet. 


Wish us luck!!  :)
