So I had my first snowboarding experience yesterday :) My little brother's b-day is tomorrow so my mom brought him up north to go snowboarding for his b-day. He talked Keri, Amber, and John into going with him.. I went up to Sundance just to watch with my mom, uncle, cousins, and Lexi. But I ended up snowboarding too! After Keri and Amber's very first snowboarding run Amber was pretty tired so she said I could use all her stuff!! So I got on the lift with my brother and was pretty excited.. Well I totally ate it off the lift :) Like really hard.. So hard that my tail-bone is so soar.. Keri was laughing pretty hard because she was in back of me when it happened.. On their first attempt getting off the lift they fell down too.. Just not as hard! So anyways I made it off the ground and looked down at what I was about to attempt! It was a pretty scary feeling.. I got super nervous and felt like I was going to die! Everyone left me because I couldn't even get up!! It was so hard.. Way harder than I ever imagined it would be! It took me about 2 hours just to get down the mtn. I know I know.. Not very good.. Jonathon is a very good snowboarder on the other hand but was not there yesterday.. So I didn't have him there to help me.. He's been trying to get me to go for such a long time and it's just never really worked out to where I could go.. I was pretty sad he wasn't there to see me embarass myself.. But I definately want to go again! My whole body is in a lot of pain.. But I think it's well worth it! It was a lot of fun! I can't wait to go again. My little bro is giving me all his old snowboarding stuff!! Anyways it is definately harder than it looks.. 5 year old kids where passing me! Okay maybe not 5 probably 6! But anyways I was pretty bad :) Hopefully I'll get better!

Ha Ha, yeah sorry about just ditching you at the top of the hill! And I am SO SORE too! I didn't think I was going to be able to get out of my bed this morning. But I had to go to school, so I painfully crawled out of bed. Everything on me is sore...my neck, arms, abs, bum (especially my tailbone...I literally have bruises on it!) ...Oh but snowboarding was so fun; we'll definatly have to go again!
Fun Fun! I'll have to try it sometime! see you this weekend at Nicole's blessing if you're able to make it.
It was good to see you guys again as always and the whole visit was fun, especially being outdoors and watching everyone snowboard. If I get up enough nerve I am going to go skiing again, I haven'nt been since a little after dad and I got married. It looked so fun. I really don't think it would take that much to get back into it. Love you, thanks for coming with us!
props to you for getting on the ski lift.. i headed to the bunny slope and stayed there for hours. I think skiing is probably just as hard as snow boarding. I don't know how many times I wiped out... its a toughy.. but eventually you will get it... it took me all day to figure it out... I guess my next attempt is getting on the ski lift..
I have been snowboarding once, and I fell everytime I got off the stupid lift. I never felt so stupid in my life. Oh well I will just stick to skiing, I don't won't to relive that moment.
HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY DEREK! I want to go snowboarding so bad, we'll have to go sometime and you'll have to give me some pointers, I would rather get them from you cause I think we would just laugh and roll down the hill together:) I miss you so much and hope you are doing awesome!
Ha Ha, I can totally see you trying to snowboard. I have never done it before either, so I'm sure I'd biff it bad. I'm sorry you cracked your tailbone...that kills! COngrats on the business! If you move up here we will definitely have to get together!
