SKILLS REQUIRED!

Tuesday night I was blessed by my husband to be able to go snowboarding with the girls. This would be my first trip in 3 years! I was a little nervous, but all went well. Thanks to the Strauss House for watching Miss Lauren. I joined Karly and Becks for a night of awesome boarding. It all came rushing back to me.
Here are a few pics of my adventure.
Lauren was helping me pack...what little girl doesn't like to try on shoes?
And Mama's hat :)

We also had a little music time. I had to put this picture in. This is one of Lauren's favs.
Anytime I try to play, she says no Mama and sits on the floor waiting for me to put it on her lap.
So cute!



So this is a funny sign...posted at the top of a "tough" run. It wasn't a hard run at all, but they had this sign and we thought it would be fun to take a picture in front of. All three of us did take a jump. It was awesome. Becks first by the way!
BEFORE
This was with my camera phone....soooo bad. Karly on left and Becks on right

AFTER
I fell right on my back....
It seems I was always falling. No not as I was carving down the mt, but anytime I was standing still...I was on my back.
In all it was an awesome night of boarding. I'm trying to figure out the next night we can go. Tuesday nights at Ski bowl $13 can't beat it!
Let me know who's down.

OH that looks so fun.... Scott and I gave all our snowboarding stuff away last year since it had been 5 years since we had even gone!! We figure by the time we can actually go again we will need new stuff anyway....

Hey Girl! I am glad you got out and challenged yourself. I don't know what it is, but since I am almost 30...things that I could kill myself doing don't seem as fun anymore! :) Ha! I love ya, and hope to see you soon. Laura

How fun! Matt took the day off to go boarding today. I must say I'm a little jealous even though I stink at snowboarding. Love the blog!
