New Delhi (ANI): Actress Kate Hudson will spend Christmas skiing with four-year-old Ryder in the mountains of Colorado. "Every year we go to Colorado because we grew up there and we ski," Hudson said.

Ryder, Hudson's child with ex-husband, Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson, learnt to ski last Christmas, reports the China Daily. He mastered the slopes so quickly he was tackling advanced runs by the time Hudson came to check on him.

"I started panicking a little bit because I couldn't see him anywhere, and the instructor came over and said, ''Oh, actually, he's up on the mountain.'' I'm standing there in my skis and I'm looking up and all of a sudden I see this little kid in camouflage and I'm like, 'No!' He is just zooming down the mountain and I started to cry?I grew up skiing, and then you see your kids ski and there's a freedom in it, it's beautiful," Hudson added.
