woo hoo

Tonight Becky showed us a very fun tobogganing hill. Its in Westbank. We packed up and went after dark. It was sooooo fun and exhilarating. I haven't been to a hill that steep ever. Well there were steep parts and not as steep parts and then after you go down the main big one, there were other little ones. It was complex. And totally fun. I was scared to go down the steep one at first. It is SO steep!!! Like straight down. But, Kyle dragged me and away I went, and after that I was hooked. Becky and I kept going over and over. The hike back up was quite exhausting and I had to tote Sloan up a few times which about killed me. Kyle couldn't do much because his knee is still hurt. After a few runs he was done. When we got home, it was way past bedtime and the kids conked out pretty fast. Fun. I'm glad we finally have some snow and it's not too freezing to play in. Adriel was so excited to get to try out his new snowboard he got for Christmas. He spent a good bulk of the time practicing that at a much less steep area. I admired his determination. Falling and getting snow in his face did not seem to discourage him at all.

This week was a busy one, but it was good. At our soccer game on Tuesday, we won 9-5. I don't want to toot my own horn, but I scored 4 times. It's been a really long time since that's happened. I don't get to play forward all the time. It was so fun. I was in my element. I felt the need to mention it on here, because who else can I tell? I'm allowed to be a little proud about that right?

Today was a relief society activity, and a birthday party for Adriel and a dentist appointment for Kyle and I watched Nathan (Becky's son) in the morning...Sometimes I just wish for a day that we don't have anything we have to do. It seems every weekend usually gets busy and it's over too fast. I like being busy and having fun things to do, but I like a down day too.

Bed time for me- this 9am church is taking some getting used to. I like to have time to primp. 9am doesn't allow for that.

WE have 9am church this year too and it always seems to be rush to get there because I am not used to getting up that early on a Sunday. I always seems to feel sick at church because I wolf down breakfast before we go - not cool. I think that its plenty fine that you toot your own horn! Good for you for scoring the goals! Wooohooo!

ugh - 9am church. Why don't they just do it at 10?! I never understood. Even just that one hour is soo much better.

ohh my goodness tobogganing! So fun! I miss that. I wish I could have seen Adriel learning how to snowboard. And you playing soccer. Heck YA you're allowed to be proud of your soccer playing skillz. I'M always proud when I watch you play, you're like this indomitable force of nature...when you go for it, you always dominate the field! It's lovely and inspiring to see, especially when you're playing against boys...hehe. Anyways, that's what I think.
