Ski day at Brighton

Shane and I had so much fun skiing over Valentine's weekend that we decided that we wanted our girls to learn how to ski so that we could go and ski together as a family. Even though it's towards the end of the season, we thought that it'd be good to get a few days in this spring and then get back into it this next winter. We took the girls up to Brighton and they were all in the same class and they LOVED it! When I was 9 or 10, I took ski lessons through a program that Deseret News had at the time. My girlfriends and I had so much fun (right Les and Em?) and I'm so glad that those simple lessons have stuck with me. I'm not a great skier, but I'm an okay skier. At least I can keep up with my kids, for now that is!

Shelb and Sage were rock stars and did so awesome. They're so excited to go back again!

I love the above picture with Lexi holding her arms straight out coming down the mountain. She did great!

Skate Park

I know it seems like I post a lot of stuff about this little twirp of mine, but I tell ya, it's never ending excitement with her. Lexi has been begging me since Christmas, when she got her skateboard, for me to take her to the skate park. Finally, this last Saturday we ventured up to the skate park and let have at it. Shane and I were a little hesitant because the park was packed with lots of kids, mainly teenagers, riding their bikes and their boards. Do you think this slowed her down? Heck no! That girl hopped on her board and was hanging with the big boys. She's a riot!

She insisted on going down this ramp that was way too steep, but I just had to let her go and she made it half way down before wiping out. She just has her mind made up that she can do anything- and most the time- she can!

Look out X Games- I think we have a future rider on our hands!
