From The Sunny Beaches to the Snowy Mountains

Sam and I got into Salt Lake City at midnight (from Mexico) on Thursday, we stayed the night at my mom's. Friday, Sam went to a dental convention while I stayed at my mom's and had a wonderful Sister's luncheon (pesto bread and squirrel salad), then went skiing with Anny, Brynn, Blake, Jim, Max and Zack. It was free ski day from 3:00 to 4:30. I knew ahead of time, so I brought all my ski stuff. Except, I left my poles in Sam's car, which he had, and I could only find one glove in my bag. So I borrowed a pair of Anny's "Old" gloves...hey they worked, and I used her poles for a run while she worked with Blake. Then she needed them for him to hang on to.
We hardly saw the boys. The one time we saw them, we made them stop to get a picture. Thanks boys. :)

Brynn and I were ski buddies. It was so fun to ride the lift and ski with her. We laughed and talked and had a fun time. I had a hard time keeping up with her at times. For her second time skiing, she did GREAT!


As I was on the chair lift (kind of cold), I was thinking that just yesterday I was walking the warm beach with a little perspiration on my forehead. What a wonderful thing to be able to be hot one day and cold the next. Thanks guys for letting me join in on your ski trip!

I heard all about the dental convention from my new dentist. He said it was kind of a snoozer. I'm glad you got to have some fun at least!
