Meera’s First Day Skiing!!!

My mother. She makes our Christmases happen. She makes everything happen. She’s the quintessential Family Matriarch (in the best possible way). And today she taught Meera to ski. She taught Kyle and Owen to ski too (the winter they were three). And she taught me to ski too (the winter I was three). She is AMAZING. Today was incredible– watching my mom with my daughter, on the slopes, both of them with huge smiles plastered on their faces, skiing together. My mom cheering on Braydon as he gently pushed his baby girl forward on the snow. Kyle and Owen, bursting with pride at their sister’s first day on skiis. My dad, watching on in amazement at my 60-something mother, as she did what she does best: be amazing. All of us, having an absolute blast together. Three generations skiing together. One of our most favorite annual Christmas traditions. Words can’t do it justice, so I’ll post pictures instead.

















Two things that we don’t see much in the south-sking & snow. It looks so fun!
Yay for Meera!! Fantastic skiiing photos as always!

I’m charmed to notice that her lovey is along for the ride! So sweet.
Looks like a fun time was had by all! Love the you all have some snow up there…our yard is almost as green as the middle of summer. Merry Christmas!
