I mean, seriously, think about this, he’s been crying for two hours and they are still trying to help him move forward and down the hill with a great attitude–amazing!

Me Ra, I absolutely love how honest and open you are. I think this is why we all love you and feel like we have known you for years. I am hoping for snow in DC soon, so I can try some of this out. Thank you, Thank you!
MeRa, I am sorry to post the next thing here, but I would love to contact some of the people going to Napa. I know she asked in one of her latest posts.–
Now, for Michelle who was a finalist in the last contest and is going to Napa, please email me: wzippwald@yahoo.com. I saw that you were looking for others going to Napa in one of your lasts posts. I would love to connect to make the time between now and April go faster.
You are such a good mom! When your child cries, of course you want to comfort them……..mine are all grown up and I still want to do that! It looks like you have a wise friend in Shannon. Hang on to her. It’s great to see you and your family having a wonderful time…..you deserve it. Thanks for sharing!
Me Ra, you are so brave! Love you!
hahah! that was a really great story…and i love how lil blaze just looks so tiny in that helmet & lil skis….wow, i can’t imagine….i hope he learns to enjoy it!!!! itz a great life experience!!!!
Those pictures are great. I have to echo the previous post and say that Blaze looks so tiny. How cute that the kids are the “mini-mice”. That last shot made me tear up – what parent hasn’t thought about what happens when they leave the kids for a bit. Now to know – ugh! Hope today is a little easier.
I hope Brian is feeling better. That will drain you.
Love the pictures and the recipe. What lens where you using?
Way to be brave.
No one can ever really prepare you for those “brave and strong” mother moments. Thank heavens for the good friends who help talk you through them! What wonderful photos out of the crisis, though! Can’t wait to try these tips out, as we have been getting snow on and off since we got home from the Seattle Workshop.
I just posted some ski lessons pictures on my blog too! Your weather looks like it was much better than mine, though. Thanks for the recipe for the pictures. It gets way easier for the kids the more they do it. My three year old loves to ski but we haven’t tried leaving her with an instructor (not only enough for them around here). It’s hard to turn off those mother bear instincts but what you did was good for them!
Have fun tomorrow!
I don’t even know you and have fallen in love with your blog. I love the way you tell stories. Poor you, leaving them!!!
Boy, it’s hard getting started. Want to take my 4 1/2 year old skiing this winter for the first time. Have the same fear about ski school, just being bundled up in all that stuff is enough to drive anyone nuts, never mind strapping on skis (I forgot, the little ones don’t have to deal with poles, so that’s good). What they say they want or don’t want and what they do is often 2 different things! I was debating taking him myself for the first time to get him used to it, but school is often the best option. Thanks for sharing the trails and tribulations of mom and kids, and glad you got some good pics!
I think we turned a corner in skiing with the kids! I can’t wait to get these new photos up and posted for all of you! And yes, i totally need to post the Rocky Mountain Pizza Dough recipe, what a great idea! I’ll totally do that!
Wendy, I almost forgot about your question. When we get back, I’ll send an email to all the current women coming to Sonoma, so you can connect with eachother. Fantastic idea!!
Me Ra, Thank you so much. That would be fun to connect. I am so glad the Rocky Mountain Dough Recipe is coming. Thank you, thank you!!
Hi Me! Just had to take a minute and write to tell you how much I love your images and instructional materials. Each one teach one has always been my motto and it seems you feel the same way. Thanks for helping to keep the standards high in our industry to sharing so much valuable info 🙂
Your kids will be the king and Queen of the mountain in no time! I love how tough kids are when the fall and I love how fast they learn! Good job getting them started early! The worst is learning how to ski as an adult! Just think you are saving them from that embarrassment!
