Yep, it's official. Austin is just as excited as his Mom and Dad to go skiing this winter. We went the Annual Bogus Basin Ski Swap last night (which is one of the biggest in the Northwest), and found him his first pair of skiis and boots. We bought them a little big too, so he can wear them next year as well (which then will get passed down to his brother). Plus, we found a helmet and goggles, and walked out only paying $65 for everything. Sweet. Sure, they're used, but who cares! He's 4! You can bet that he was playing w/ his new gear all morning too-putting his boots and skiis on, pretending to ski! I love it. He even told me that when he gets bigger, he wants to race. Even better.
I'm so glad he takes after us and loves this sport because it really is our favorite thing to do as a family. And good thing kids are FREE at Bogus until 7 yrs of age too. Sure, we might be kickin' it on the bunny hill most of the time (until they're older, that is), but we have a GRAND time skiing and laughing together on the slopes. The other thing I love about skiing? It gets you OUTSIDE in the wintertime to enjoy the beautiful outdoors!
