After much anticipation, the kids headed back to Mt. Hood to resume their ski lessons.  Both Franny and Cole had great experiences, despite extremely windy and snowy conditions.  Cole spent his day working on basic skills, in addition to a few runs on the rope tow; after a brief refresher, Franny spent the day doing runs off the chair lift.  And, this year Delaney had her own skis, as well!  Unfortunately, due to the weather, she didn't spend much time using them.  She scooted around for a bit, but I think the wind and snow took a lot of the joy out of it for her.  Not to mention that she was quite disgruntled that she didn't have ski goggles like Franny and Cole, although we did rent her a helmet that she was quite proud of.   But, despite the weather, it was still a great day.  Both kids came off the snow smiling and looking forward to the next time.  Hopefully that next time will be soon!
