Ski Diva Extraordinaire
This last weekend Nolan really turned the corner. I've been forcing him to go to ski school almost every weekend. He's one of those kids who doesn't want to go to school, doesn't want to do this, doesn't want to do that. When he gets there he really enjoys it but the getting there is an issue.
He went on Saturday and didn't want to ride the chairlift. Last weekend during a private lesson he got hit by a snowboarder and was pretty freaked out. He wasn't hurt but scared. So Saturday he went on the lift a few times then wanted to go back to the bunny hill.
Sunday he had a new instructor. I told him that he could try not giving him the option of staying on the bunny hill and just only doing the lift. Well, he was a completely transformed little guy by noon. He even went into the terrain park, jumped off the box, and jumped the little jump. :p :p He was LOVING it!
I can't wait to go this weekend and just finally have some fun with him. I think we may still do one day of ski school because he seems to like being with more little kids but I'm just geeked that he's starting to enjoy it.
Oh, and he also said it's more fun because he's not falling all the time.
