Skiing for the first time!
Theo learned how to ski! Skiing at Crystal Mountain Resort We had heard that the mountains had 11 feet of snow last weekend so we decided to head down the Crystal Mountain ski resort near Mount Rainer and check it out. First, we had to find some gear for the little man, which I managed to get thanks to a neighborhood Facebook group called "Buy Nothing Green Lake". People lent us their gear and it was perfect since it doesn't make sense to invest in snow suit and boots when you live somewhere that rarely gets any snow. Then we frantically arranged for a sitter for Marit as our first sitter had to cancel. I also invited one of my co-fellows, Tara Jones, to join us and we headed south. There was a dense fog in the city but as we neared Mount Rainier the clouds disappeared and there was nothing but blue sky and sunshine. There was a dusting of snow on the highway near the entrance but once we turned into the resort, the snow banks started to grow. We arrived around 10:3
