This was the boys' first day skiing. We headed up the "Magic Carpet" a few times before we hit the beginner chairlift.

The boys had a great time. We skied for about 2 hours. They kept wanting to go down again and again!

With skiing from late October to early June, Arapahoe Basin boasts one of the longest ski seasons in North America.

By the end of the day, the boys were moving around on their skis, shifting side-to-side and forward. We saw some 4-year-olds who were cruising around - so, one more year and we figure they'll be able to fly!

All done for the day
