SKIING DAY 2 Lake Tahoe


Love these two!
Such great attitudes and excited to ski day 2. 



Family skiing day 2 

Ready for ski school 
Throwing snowballs at Dad while waiting for ski school to start 





Corben going down the bigger hill in the ski school area, working on stopping 

Mason doing great...
headed to the bigger hills


Corben is in front of little kid in orange helmet (corben wearing all black, the boy in the orange helmet will be in all the pics, mason wearing the bright blue) 



Riding the magic carpet....next the chair lift! 

Mason wasn't a big fan of the magic carpet, she kept her head down. 


Going down the bigger hill! Yay!
Instructor in Red, then Corben, friend and Mason in blue 















Love this one of Corben
bending down to gain speed! 





Kids did so great on the 2nd day and had 2 instructors for the 3 kids-great teaching!  The first day there were 7 kids to 1 instructor.
...
Which gave Caleb and I a great day to ski together 



I had to sneak around to watch the kids...on the chair lift 

Corben on the right 


Mason with the instructor...she was talking his ear off...I could hear from down below! 














On our drive back to the hotel....the sunset was amazing!
We drove over to Zephyr Cove 


Running on the snow down to the lake 

Family pic (after a day of skiing-so wore out!) 

Day 1 in Lake Tahoe for our Family Ski Trip


Drive up to South Lake Tahoe 


We stayed at the base of Heavenly...a friend gave us their time share for a reduced rate...and we were thrilled with the accommodations.  
Out to dinner...Corben holding an icicle and the kids loved walking in the snow 

Driving to Sierra at Lake Tahoe with the beautiful sunrise 
30 minute drive from South Lake Tahoe with more snow and great runs, also....all day ski school for the kids...which means Dad and Mom get to ski all day together! 




  
Family Ski Day! 

Kids first time skiing
The weather was -7
the sun helped keep us warm 
The ski school and small slopes the kids started on....they stayed here for day 1 and day 2 they moved up to the big hill. 





It had been ~10 years since we last skied together!










Enjoying the views of South Lake Tahoe! 



Beautiful snow capped mountains! 

Loved skiing with Caleb....as we get older, I noticed we had to take more frequent stops down the mountain (perfect to use our selfie stick) 
Driving back to our hotel after a great day of skiing
