We went skiing at Targhee last weekend with the kids. Jeff had Thursday and Friday off so we went a stayed at the resort and played on the slopes for 2 days. It was Taylor's first time skiing and it was so cute. She is starting the youngest of any of our kids. By the end she was doing so good and skiing on her own. Kaylee got to where she could do it on her own without her edgie wedgie, Only because it broke. We did have a melt down by the 2 girls on Friday morning and they got to experience 4 hours at the kids club. It was really nice for Jeff and I to ski with Ryan on the big hill.
The kids also loved the outdoor pool and hot tub in the evenings. The pool is heated, but not enough for my enjoyment. The hot tub felt great and it was such a pretty setting. Targhee has some great deals for lodging and skiing right now. It was fun to ski right up to the hotel when we were done. We had never experienced that before.
Doesn't this look fun? Jeff is so patient with beginners. He stayed on the magic carpet with the 2 girls for about 2 hours on the first day.
Ryan liked the magic carpet too for awhile, but then we headed up to the bigger hill.
Going up on the lift. Kaylee was pretty brave and wanted to go up. The meltdown happened when she fell down and wouldn't listen to us about how to lay on her side and learn to stand up. She just wanted us to pick her up and do it for her.
Up at the top of the hill. I love the views at the top of Targhee, you can see the Tetons in the background.
Taylor got so good that we were playing ski through the tunnel with her. She loved it. I will have to have Jeff post the video of her skiing. It is so cute.
Jeff could tell her little pizza, big pizza, and stop and she could do it by herself. She was also turning on her own.

I am so jealous! I haven't gotten out yet this season. Looks like you guys had a blast! We are excited to get Owen skiing when he gets a little older.
you and kaylee look like twins in the picture on the lift. can you believe I've never gone skiing or snowboarding!?!
That looks like fun and I am so impressed with how well Taylor did. We have yet to go skiing, and I even got my very first pair of skis for Christmas. Hoping to soon. Targhee looks beautiful, may have to go north instead of South.
Sounds like a fun family trip. I am so impressed with Taylor, how awesome is that!
Cute! Sounds like a fun trip. Someday we'll have to go together! We need to get back on the slopes. I guess getting to the grocery store is first. Although skiing sounds a lot funner! Baby steps!
that is awesome!! I'm jealous of your kids learning to ski at such an early age. I would need to be on the same hill as them right now!! looks like you had a great time! love ya!
