Are You Ready To Ski?
Ok so it has now been a whole month almost since my last entry. Since then the snow has come. The ski resorts are opening and I am getting ready to teach for my second year at Brighton Ski Resort. Last year when I tried out I mainly did it so I could get a free seasons pass which is way cool but learned that I actually like teaching. I got to work with alot of kids and watch them finally get it and even though I was teaching them they were actually teaching me. I had alot more time on my skis last year and I think I got better :) When you teach you break things down into a step by step process and that actually helped me think about what I was doing on my skis and correct anything that I was not doing right. This year I have a desire to really step it up and learn that pesky powder business so it doesnt look so painful when I come down the hill. Yesterday Matt and I and Collin went up to get our Passes. Collin and Evan are free but they can still get a pass with their picture on it for 10 bucks. It was cool to see my baby sitting there so grown up ready to get his pass. He has no idea what he is in for since this will be his first year on skis, but I hope he likes it and since he seems to do whatever Evan is doing I think it will work out ok. After yesterday I had a small glimpse into my future for my Winter Mondays. (I have Mondays off at my other job) ...... next year Collin will be 4 so he can go to ski school and I can teach and then the next year he can ski all morning and then go to kindergarten in the afternoon and the then the year after that........... school all day so my mondays are mine again at least from 8:30am to 3:30pm so I will be skiing and teaching and probably a few naps!

Hooray for skiing. I can't wait to see Collin. He will be so funny and I am sure he will yell at me haha. Glad you get to teach again. I know how much you love it. You might have to teach me...it's been awhile! xoxo
Wanna do a little moonlighting on the side and teach my kids too? I can guarantee they will fine-tune your teaching skills!hehehe
Your boys are going to be awesome skiiers with you and Matt for parents! All Riley has been talking about is skiing and iceskating when we're in Utah--he really thinks he knows how to do both. I told him we would start out easy, like go sledding or something. I mean, the kid's see an inch of snow in his entire life!
Wahoo for passes! Can't wait to get up there myself.
