On new years eve day we headed up near Alpental for some snow play. Kayla first rolled down the snow bank (for fun) followed by Tim. Amazing how a year older (for Kayla) can change things. She loves the snow and playing in it. Well, okay mostly eating it, but having fun too.

We drove up to White pass for a weekend of skiing (after an adventure of sorts, first heading to Stevens pass to ride, then doing middle of the night through snowy elk filled road driving) and fun. Jason joined us and took turns riding with Tim and I. I was able to take the girls sledding. Kayla and hit some jumps with the sled the first day, and just had fun the second day.

Kayla got back on her skis and did so great. We just kept it fun this time and on the flats, though the “flat” was still sloped enough for her to get some speed. Julia wanted to try out the skis too. I think the boots are as big as her whole legs. She didn’t last very long.
