"the glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to you when you discover that someone else belives in you and is willing to trust you"

On friday the kids had ski school so it was an early rise for everyone. They loved it. I watched from inside, it was a perfect day for skiing but I just had no motivation to get out there. It was so beautiful up there, massive mountains and gorgeous (but expensive) cabins everywhere. So friday was kind of a lazy day just watching the kids learn.
I finally got to ski on the Saturday it was great. Preston was my teacher, man he had so much patience. The first run was terrible, I was so close in quiting. Haha It sounds so easier, just do this and put pressure there but truely its not! Anyway so the first run I on my bottom the whole time. Hahaha. I then thought ok well I'll try again and we how I'll go, YES I was much better. I fell once and I actually skied! WHoo--HOoo!! It was brilliant I had so much fun. Until.....Preston and the kids were like ok lets go to the next mountain (it was much steeper then what I was on.) Yeh ok, lets go. So we took the chair lift and up the steep mountain we went. I was thinking, what the heck am I doing!?! So as I'm coming down I'm thinking this is sooooo steep and all the things Preston had just taught me flew out of my head and I just stiffened up. I was so scared, but I had to get down the hill that was the only way. I finally got down but I didnt go back up believe me. I just stuck on my little slope haha! It was great I had a brilliant time Saturday.
(the bunny run that I loved)
The "Superbowl" was also on Sunday night. It was the Steelers verses Cardinals. The Steelers won by about 2-4points. It was great to see the match, as thats the big 'thing' in America, I didnt under the rules but I made out I did. (hehe)
The Monday we pretty much cleaned up and drove another 6 hours to home. It was good I got a little bit of a sleep, but really sleeping in the car isnt the greatest. Especially when your neck is bent in stupid ways.
All and all it was a great weekend. This weekend I'm going to Boston with some Australian Au Pairs so I cant wait for that. :) That will be lots of fun. And the weekend after I'm not sure if I'm going to go to the White Plans to see my friend or to Upstate NY with my family to go snow mobiling. We'll have to think about that one. I have a total of 23days until I leave for Portland. :) I'm also very excited about that. Whoh so many things that are coming up, time will fly!
Ok thats all from me at the moment.
