Skiing vs Bolt

Yesterday I was so excited to take Boston up to Alta to do a little free skiing. From 3:00 to 4:30 anyone can go for free and I thought that it would be a prefect time to let him get use to his ski's and get some free practice in. I was so excited, we got out the ski bag the night before and made sure that his goggles and gloves were still in there and that his ski pants fit. He thought this was awesome. He kept his goggles on all night and could not wait to go. I told him that I would pick him up from school and then go rent some skies, but by the time school was over there was a storm up the canyon and you had to have chains or 4x4 to get up. Since we sold the trooper we are without 4 wheel drive. So we couldn't go. I was so mad, so I suggested that we take Boston to see Bolt. He has been wanting to see it. So we made a night of it, movie at the Gateway, dinner and a little shopping. It was really cold, and the boys were grumpy, but we still liked the movie, and I got a Christmas present. Doesn't get much better than that, right? Wrong, as much fun as it is to see a movie, eat out, and get something new, I would have rather been on the slopes with Boston. Its so much fun to teach them something new and see the joy that they get from it. So maybe in a week or two we can try again. Sorry Boston
