Skiing!

Shane and I went skiing a couple weekends ago. This was my first time this season and only his second. You would think with living in a place like Erie we'd find more weekends to go. I'm starting to get nervous with all these high temps that we won't be able to go again this year before all the snow melts!


Shane, iron cross style. I sooooooooo wish I could just ski off this jump (no fancy tricks), but I don't even have the courage. Shane makes it look so easy! One day . . . .


Shane doing a double daffy off one of the jumps at the Peak. He's crazy.

Last Ski Trip!

Shane and I took what will probably be our last ski trip yesterday. And what a BEAUTIFUL day it was! Sun was shining (even got a little sun on my face)! Blue skies! Freshly groomed trails! Fun jumps!

Here are some pics of Shane going off the jumps and going in the half pipe @ the Peak! He is amazzzzzing at skiing. He goes so fast through the woods, and can jump and do tricks like it's his job! One day I'll get there! ;-) . . . (yeah right). It's so fun for me to watch him though, and it was such a great day out! I did go off some of the jumps (no fancy tricks though), and I landed them too (No pics or vid. You'll just have to trust me on that).

Sad that we probably won't be able to ski again this season, but soooooooooo excited for warmer weather (hopefully)!

Utah!!

Yikes!!

Leaving today to go to Utah to go skiing with Shaney, Dan, Marissa, & Chelsea!!!

I'm soooooooooo excited!!! . . . . . and so nervous!!

The "hills" out there are a lot different from the "hills" @ the Peak!

Hope to come back in one piece!!! I will let you know! . . . . Hopefully!

Have a great weekend! :-)

Peek N' Peak!

Yay! Shane and I decided to go skiing today (Sunday) at Peek N' Peak! (I always forgot which "peak/peek" went first. . . so I made a little thing up . . . you want to "peek"/look before you "peak" go down the mountain. . . I know . . I'm weird). . .
I was very reluctant to go . . . it was soooo cold out today (and I HATE being cold), but our good friends from track (Jon & Cassie) were coming also, and I wanted to see them, so we bundled up with TONS of layers and headed out to ski.I'm really glad we went, because I had A LOT of fun. I enjoy skiing more and more every time I go. . . probably because I get more comfortable doing it. This is my 2nd or 3rd year of skiing, but I usually only ski once or twice a year . . soo . . . but I am getting better! I went on a "box" today and through the woods and on some "jumps" (although I'll admit . . . I didn't get much air) . . but I did not fall once! Yay!
Shane however, is much MUCH more experienced than I am. He just amazes me with his zooming through the woods, his speed and his crazy high and complicated jumps he does (iron cross, helicopter, double daffy, and lots more!)!!
Shane and I got there around 10am, and then Jon and Cassie met up with us for lunch and then we all went back out. Cassie's dad is an instructor there and skied with us for a while too! It was fun! I really miss them! And track! We were all such a family and had so much fun together!
It was a very fun time. A very cold time, but a very fun time. I just love that Shane and I have these activities that we both enjoy and can do together. And skiing is a sport you can do forever, which makes it even better.
