Laine Skiing

Laine, Anna, Mathew and I went skiing from February 8-12 at Northstar in Tahoe.  Laine is skiing for the first time.  She hung out with Mathew and me, who attempted to lightly introduce her to the concept of skiing, then she took a lesson with a real teacher.

Going up the magic carpet for the first time

Graduation to the chair lift – a nervous Laine sits quietly…

Anna took this one of Laine and Mathai going up the chairlift for the first time
