Skiing at Wachusett Mountain

Last weekend, we had a great weekend skiing at Wachusett Mountain with The Mancino's, Uncle Joey, Aunt Jenna, Alex and Stacy! This was Sierra's first time on skiis. Since, you have to be 4 years old to take a lesson, we just rented her a pair or skiis and either Cory or I stayed with her and helped her get used to them on some little snow hills they have set up. She did awesome and she had such a great time! Meanwhile, Avery, Alex and Stacy took lessons Saturday and Sunday mornings. They started out at Level 2 on Saturday and moved up to Level 3 on Sunday, which meant they got to go on the big chair lift to the top of the Bunny Hill. And both days, we all skiied together in the afternoon. The kids all did a great job and we all had so much fun!

As Avery said, "Nothing like a hot cup of chocolate after a cold day of skiing!"
