My First Ski Trip




We all went to Barren River Lake up in Kentucky Saturday and went skiing!!! We rented a pontoon boat in addition to Jim Ed's ski boat and Holland did awesome!! She stayed on the pontoon all day under the canopy and out of the sun. She loved feeling the wind in her hair as we rode around the lake. We also put her life jacket on and got her in the lake with daddy. She did not have a problem with that at all and she stayed in the water for about 10 minutes. Her chin started to chatter when she got cold in the water so we got her out and she ended up taking about a 45 minute nap on the boat after that. We brought some small fans and put them on her while the boat was not moving and she was very comfortable.

All in all, we had a blast and it was well worth bringing her out there. Daddy can barely move today after skiing all day. He hasn't used a lot of those muscles in quite some time and they are letting him know about it. We taught Holland's Uncle Brian how to ski and we think he is ready to take it up as a sport. We have a feeling he is just a sore!!!
