Immi's 5th Birthday Ski Weekend


Immi’s 5th Birthday and we took a trip to the snow for a couple of days.


Thanks to all that sent messages, cards and presents. She had a lovely day, even if we did wake her at 6AM to open them...........can’t be late for the first ski lifts.


We were incredibly lucky with the weather and conditions -no wind, little or no cloud and the best snow for several years – just fantastic.



All of the girls skiing improved so much, but Immi made the leap from “magic carpet” status to open slopes and skiing with her sisters. She was a little rocket, who after explaining how she planned to follow us safely down the mountain, quickly took the lead and had the big girls chasing with Sal and I shouting “TURN!”.....I think self preservation comes with age.

Mount Kosciusko (end of Katie's finger) – the largest hill mountain in Australia (2,228meter)...about double Snowdon....still looks like a hill though.

Dam these boots!

Snow looks great - no bumps. Love the new house, dog and seaweed dance.
