Saint Vincent‘s Boy Scout troop provided us a trip to the bittersweet ski resort in Michigan. I was able to take Jaxton and Cooper on the trip. It was our first ski trip all around. It was definitely a first experience and a lot of fun. It was about 20° and we stuffed our boots with toe warmers and her gloves with handwarmers. The gear was bulky and uncomfortable but it kept us warm. And it was a learning experience to figure out how to ski! Jaxton was a natural from the start and picked it up fast. Cooper wanted to take a lesson and learn specifics and take it slow. Once we got the hang of things and had to make a pizza slice with our feet it became fun and thrilling! We went up and down many times. The left was so scary the first time we went up it. There is no power to keep you in and if you can forward you would just fall out! Super scary! But it got better after a few times of doing it. We stuck to the first two slopes that way for beginners like us. It was a great day with my boys.
