Anyone??....
Aww come on you can guess......
Okay I will tell you, SKIING!!! As you all know if you read my blog daily, I went skiing this past weekend with my family for my birthday. I love love love to ski, and I had not been in 2 years. The last time I went skiing was in Whistler, Canada during New Years of 06-07. We cross country road tripped it, and we hit the slopes for a week. It was hubby and I's first trip as a dating couple, and it was soo much fun. The next winter we did not make it out to any slopes, and then the next winter I was with child. Anyway, it had been a while. I live near a ski lodge, and so my family came up to my house on Friday night. We had a great time playing the Wii Fit that I got for my birthday from my inlaws, and drinking Cranberry Margaritas, and of course everyone enjoyed playing with little man, who stayed up WAY past his bedtime to play :).
Here we are before we left my house minus Katherine, who took FOREVER to get there Saturday morning :). Caleb did not go skiing, he stayed at Memaw's, but he joined in the picture.
We then headed out. The car ride was fun, and was filled with my sisters and I screaming country and bluegrass music at the top of our lungs while obnoxiously dancing in the backseat. My dad and stepmom seemed immune to our loudness.
Once we arrived at the slopes it took a little bit to get everything together and get out on the hills. I spent the first half teaching my middle sister and dad how to ski. Dad decided it wasn't for him, but Ran did a good job once she got the hang of it. I looked over at one point coming down a hill and she was literally hugging a tree because she got scared. It was funny. :)
Dad, Nancy and Ran left about mid day but Kat, Nick, and my bro-in-law stayed out until around 10:30. Basically when the slopes turned to ice. I have to brag that I did not fall the entire day! We spent most of our time on blues, and it was so fun. My sister however, yea this one with the pretty little face and sweet expression...
Don't let her fool you. She is evil! She decided I needed to fall, so she snowboarded directly in front of me coming down and hill, and we rolled into a ball. It was hilarious, and it took forever to get me back up, because my ski's kept sliding down the hill.
It was such a fun day. Thanks again daddy! (I can't wait to be able to take Caleb skiing one day, even though hubby says he needs to be a snow boarder).

Oh how fun, I love that you and your sisters are so close. Thats great that you had such a great time with your family. I hope they will join you again on the slopes for your next b-day. Sounds like a blast.
That sounds like so much fun! I've never been skiing but have recently been thinking about going. I'm so nervous!
