Hey, y'all -
Here's the thing about Hagen:
He either wants to sit on the couch and accomplish absolutely nothing (why on Earth would anyone ever want to go outside? That's where the weather is!) or he wants to do something insanely fast that hurls his body down a hill like someone who doesn't know the meaning of the word "deductible."
So it was with skiing, earlier this year. We couldn't believe he'd even agree to get on the lift, but he did. After a few downhill runs with your dad holding him back with a rope - in a move I like to call "the thigh burner," Hagen said "I think that's about enough of the rope. Let's just go."
OK, then.
Our family has become a well-behaved Nordic gang, cruising down the bunny hill in a pack.
To me, the best part of that video is when you can hear Laney shouting "Nice work, bud!...Awesome!"
Hagen might be a great skier, but she's a hell of a sister.
Love,
Mom
