Kallon went skiing for the first time during our visit to Idaho in January. At first he would not stand up so Cory picked him up under his arms and held onto him while he skied down the hill. The entire way down Kallon was laughing and saying this is so fun over and over again. He also really loved the ski lift. He thought he was pretty darn cool all the way there watching the skiers go by down below. I was very nervous for that part because I wasn't sure how we were going to get off. I have trouble sometimes getting off by myself. We managed though and never fell once. By the third run he had caught on and was doing great. There was junior students at the ski hill that day for a field trip and as they passed over top of us on the lift they would cheer Kallon on. Kallon was in heaven! I think to have people he didn't even know cheering for him really made him try harder. As long as we had a hold of the harness Kallon would ski down a little ways, stop and get going again all his own. We are so proud of him and Cory is even more excited that Kallon loved it. He had grin on his face the whole time.

Geoff is dying to try Hugh on skis. He took him in the backpack a year ago, but this year he was too heavy! I love seeing the little Tykes out there!
That's awesome! I think Kyle would love that! Was Kallon sick of hearing, "Make a pizza slice!" haha. I needed those instructions when I was like 15. :)
