On day 7 of our wintery adventure, we went to Zim's Hot Springs just outside of New Meadows, Idaho. Notice the snow in the background. Yes, it was snowing (hard!) while we were in the pool, but at a toasty 104 degrees, the water was divine! The kids had a ball because even short Molly could touch the bottom.
That was day 7.
Much of our trip has been dictated by Grayson's "list" of desired activities. And believe me, he's keeping track of what we've done and what we haven't! Here's a sampling of what we've checked off so far:
Day 5: Snowmobiling (check.)
Grayson with his cousins Ben and Bryan.
Day 6: Skiing at Brundage Mountain (check.)
It was Grayson's first time on skis, a day that Dave and I had been looking forward to since we both grew up on the slopes.
Practicing the "snowplow".
On the chairlift. The "funnest" part, according to Grayson.
He's doing it!
Surprise, surprise...he wasn't a big fan of the falling.
For his first time, we thought that he did great! This picture, however, sums up Grayson's feelings about the day. :) Maybe next year we'll see a smile.
We only have a day and a half left and still a couple of big things to check off the "list"! Sledding today and skating tomorrow. Perhaps the igloo will have to wait for another year. (We can only hope.)
