Skiing!

Yesterday (Monday) I went skiing for the first time. I wasn’t too sure if I wanted to go or not, because I didn’t know if I’d like it. BUT... I LOVED it!! It was such a fun day.
I had to get up at 4am(doesn’t that sound fun?) and then we left from Uncle Scott’s at 5:30. A big group went, but we were just kind of by ourselves. It was Uncle Scott, Jenna, Jamie, Adam, Eric & I. We went to Sundown in Dubuque, Iowa and got there about 9.

I took a lesson, and fell only once! The whole day was so fun... I wasn’t even that cold until the end. I pretty much just hung out with Jamie (Uncle Scott sometimes, too) because we were the only skiers...Adam, Jenna & Eric snowboarded.

When it got dark and the temperatures dropped, I wiped out a lot because the snow turned into ice. Ouch. I have a huge blue/purple bruise on my knee and my back kind of aches, but other than that, I’m not even that sore today! Just extremely tired.

We stopped in Galesburg for supper and didn’t get back to Morton until about 10:30.
It was a great day (thanks Uncle Scott!)... I only took 2 pictures, but I’ll post some when Jenna emails hers to me. :D

And I’ll also post about Christmas sometime...
