A Daddy Daughter Date

It is also the 100th day of school as well as Tristan’s turn for a Daddy Daughter Date. All she wanted for her birthday from us was to go skiing with daddy.

I picked her up early from school and she got dressed in the car. I dropped her off at My Love’s office so they could rent skis and head up the mountain. Tristan has not been skiing since last year so she was really nervous about the lift. Daddy had to hold her tight and talk to her the whole way up about how beautiful and safe it was. She made it to the top and then was afraid to fall.  Daddy told her he would not go any further unless she made herself fall a couple time to feel that it didn’t hurt. She was able to make it down the mountain by herself but it took them an hour and a half to do it. They only had a chance to go up a second time before the lift was closed. She did way better the second time at only one hour.

Afterwards they headed for the lodge for some yummy hot chocolate.

We found out later that Paris had told Tristan all about the time she had fallen off the lift. That explained her horrible fear of falling. Next time she can just enjoy herself now that she knows she can do it!!

I think my legs are still sore from going down the mountain at super slo-mo speed while she had me hold her...i went backwards the whole time and i LOVE every minute of it...2 runs in 3 hours - what a deal :-)

That girl is just too much fun to be with...she on the way up and back home...SO CUTE!
