Future Olympians?

We have been watching the Sochi Winter Olympic games the past few days.  It is hard not to get excited, especially since some of the athletes have learned to ski (or ski jump) at Whaleback and Storr's Hill.  Could our two one day compete at the Olympics?  Probably not, but they have fun in the snow anyway. 

Today, Charlotte tried out cross country skis for the first time.  We went in our neighbor's open yard where it is flat.  Alistair skied down a couple of  times with his alpine skis, but getting uphill was a bit too difficult.
