We haven't made it skiing for a couple years now. But with some time off, it was the perfect time to go. Plus, Little Switzerland re-opened after being closed for the past five years -- and it's only 35 minutes away! We ran into three sets of people either I or the boys knew. It was the place to be, for sure. We decided to put the boys in ski school again. It's something we probably don't need to do in the future, but it's fun for them, and honestly, nice for us to get some ski time without them too. H is getting halfway decent though, so he just needs practice. C on the other hand ... I'm not sure what to say. He does fine and likes it, but my tough guy is happiest on the bunny hill. We made the mistake of trying to taking him down a larger hill later in the day, and we all kind of lost it. He was hysterical. I was mad. But the minute we brought him back to the bunny hill, he didn't want to leave. Note to self -- be a bit more patient, and just take turns with H, even if it means spending half the day on the bunny hill with C. Overall though, it was such a great day and all of us can't wait to go again.
