Obviously I missed January's edition but I made it for February...I taught my boyfriend how to ski! My boyfriend has never been skiing before and my family skis quite often. In order to entice him, I made sure we went down with a whole bunch of friends so we could ski all day and party all night. I even made sure the house we rented had a hot tub so he could relax. It worked!
There were 16 of us who made the trip to the Poconos and it was fantastic. We were all on different ski levels so he did not feel intimidated. Some only learned how to ski the prior year so we tried to keep them all together. I encouraged him to take a lesson to learn the basics. We got there about an hour before the lesson started so I figured I would help him out with learning to put his skis on, falling and getting up, etc. Well he put those skis on and off he went! He is a natural athlete so he picked it up easily. When it was time for the lesson, he already made it down a trail so we decided to skip the lesson and keep on going. I felt like a proud mama watching my child walk for the first time. He really did so good, listened to what I had to say and took some hilarious falls along the way.
With love and pearls,
Ashley
