Boarding

Today the boys wanted to try boarding, they've been pestering us for ages but we wanted them to be really competent on skis first just in case they loved it and decided they were never skiing again! (Also, with our recent record for injuries it didn't seem like the best idea!)  After one morning though there was no chance of Ned turning to the dark side, he absolutely hated it and wouldn't even stay for the afternoon.  Charlie, however, had a great time and has even moved out of the first group after one day, and he didn't sustain any new injuries....result!

I was meant to be taking Lucy on a treat on her own but we had Ned tag along too after his disastrous boarding day! We went on a horse drawn sleigh ride through the forest which was gorgeous and so peaceful.  Ned and Lucy got to have a go steering but we were glad it was only half an hour as we had picked one of the coldest days of the year so far!
