Monday

Monday was President's Day, so we got school off. Molly and I really wanted to go snowboarding. We begged my mom to take us, finally she said ok, so we just needed to talk to Molly's mom. At first she said no, but after my mom talkto to her she changed her mind. We got all our stuff ready then cought the 1 boat. After about a 2 hour drive, we were almost to there, but then all of a sudden there was a lonnnnggg line of cars on the road. We stopped the car at the end of the line and my mom got outta the car to see what was going on. When she came back she said they were doing avalanch control so the pass was closed fo an hour. We had to sit and wait in the car for a whole hour 'til we could go to the pass. It was pretty funny though because the people in the car next to us got out and started stretching. But they weren't stretching like how normal people stretch, they were like squating down and jumping and doing lunges and doing all sorts of funny stuff. Molly and I were laughing so hard, we started taking pictures of them through the car window, (they didn't know though, of course). But then we started video taping them and one of the guys saw then they all looked over at us. It was pretty imbarressing but it was really funny. Finally the pass opened again and the line of cars started to slowly merge forward. Once we got to the pass we got our stuff ready, bought our lift tickets then we had 4 hours of really good, fresh powder boarding.

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is a day when you express your love to the ones you love, or like. Back in Primary School it was required you bought little Valentine's cards for everyone in your class. I used to think it was so cool. Now Valentine's Day isn't just about small cheap 99 cent cards. It's about letting everyone around you know how much they mean to you. Cuz one day they might not be there anymore. Death happens everyday, but it's permanite. That is why people are so scared of death. If you don't like your job, you can change it. If you don't like your friends, you can get new ones. If you don't like your style, you can change it. But death can't change. That's why you need to let everyone around you know how much you love them, one day they'll be gone. That's why Valentine's Day is so important.

Snowboarding

This is my first year snowboarding, and its a lotta fun! I really like it. I've only gone up a couple times this year, but I think I've learnt a lot. The first time i went up I got a 2 hour lesson. But then i sprained my wrist cuz i cought an edge and flew backwards. It healed though, so I started going back up again. I go to Steven's atleast once a week, but I think i might be going up to Baker this weekend. On Sunday I went to Steven's for the whole day, until 10 PM. I was super sore, and tired. I like snowboarding becuase it feels so cool. Just like going down a mountain on like a small skinny board. It's lots of fun.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Last weekend was Thanksgiving. We got Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. On Thursday, which was the day of Thanksgiving, I went up to Coupville with my family to my friend, Dianna's, house. We have gone there for Thanksgiving for 5 years in a row. The whole day all we could think about was eating dinner, becuase it is always so good, and you only get one Thanksgiving dinner a year. While we were waiting for food, we had to occupy ourselves. We ended up watching 6 movies, we played hide and go seek tag in the dark, and we made a bonfire. When dinner was finally ready we all went inside and ate. The food was so delicious. But when dinner was over we didn't know what to do.. All day we were waiting to eat, then once we did, it felt like there was nothing left to do.. We had nothing left to wait for. We ended up just sitting by our big fire that was still lite from a couple hours ago, and just told scary stories. It was a good Thanksgiving.. And I can't wait til next year!
I ended up staying the night at Diana's house. We didn't go to sleep until 4 in the morning, and woke up around noon. We were all so Freaking tired from the day before, and were too lazy to do anything. We just rode horses all day, then my mom came and picked me up around 9. When i got home I was SO tired, so i just went to bed.
The next day, which would be Saturday by now, I went to Liz's house to spend the night. We played basketball outside and jumped on the hoop and stuff. Then we took her doggy outside to play fetch with him. When we went into the garage we saw 2 electric scooters! And we decided to ride them around the neighbor hood. It was a lot of fun, but then on the way back to her house, mine died and I had to drag it all the way up a really big hill. We got back to Liz's at about 11 PM. We were still really hyper cuz we had mochas, chocolate and candy. We watched a movie, and then when her brother went to sleep, we snuck in his room and put make-up all over his face! It was really funny until he woke up!
On Saturday Liz's brother took us shopping.
