Spring Break 2016 - Red River - Day 2 Beginning Skiing

Bright and early Monday morning, we made the short walk from our condo to the base of the mountain to the ski shop.  We got fitted for our skis and got happy!
These guys were so excited but had no idea what was in store for them.   
Because we booked our trip so late, we weren't able to get into a full day of ski school.  We had a private lesson scheduled for later in the morning, so we took our time checking out the surroundings.  All smiles! 
Two cuties all bundled up!  It was about 40 degrees on Monday morning.  Not super cold, but not exactly spring skiing weather.  We were glad for our ski gear. 
Dad gave the boys a little lesson on a short hill in the practice area.  He's a great skier, and they tried to learn.   
Practicing some balance . . . learning to ski is hard!  Especially when this is the most amount of clothing and gear they have ever worn in their lives.  The hardest part was getting back up the small hill to ski down to Dad.  Mom ended up pulling them back up and trying to keep everyone upright!

Next is the ski lesson.  They were still having fun and ready for the lesson.
