Weekend Recap

I went to the office on Friday. I had stayed home on Thursday and didn’t feel very productive so I wanted a change of scenery and went downtown instead.  I did much better there on Friday. We had some brief periods of blue sky and this view of the Canada Life building was framed by the pretty sky.

I got home in time to do a workout before dinner.  We decided to keep it simple and walk up to Kinton Ramen for dinner. 

Q enjoyed his bowl.

And so did E.

We got everything ready for skiing when we got home, which always takes longer than you think it will, but finally Dave and I were able to start the movie Jay Kelly. 

We got up to the ski hill on Saturday morning. They had had some rain the day before but the conditions weren’t bad. I ran into Q on one of my trips up the chairlift.

We did a couple of runs with the kids after their training was over but then hit the road.

We had leftover chili for dinner and then we watched the rest of Jay Kelly. 

Dave was off to Vegas for a work trip the next day so it was just me and the boys skiing. 

It was colder that day and of course we ran into snow on the way up, starting in Barrie. 

Snow was great though!

Q had a practice race along with the rest of the U10s and U8s.  He was pleased with his run and came 8th for the U10 Boys (out of 21).  One of our friends in U8 got 3rd place, not bad for her first race!!

I skied by myself for the afternoon with a goal of doing all of the runs on the Moonstone side.  Then I stopped to see E’s group on the terrain park and found out that one of his teammates had fallen on the jumps and was waiting for the ski patrol to take him down in the sled.  Unfortunately he had to go to hospital with a broken leg. Season over for him, which is too bad, and E will miss his friend. 

We drove through snow again but it was fine. After we got everything put away, I decided to do a bike. Like basketball and hockey players preparing for playoffs and jumping on the bike after a game, I need to prepare for our ski trip so even after skiing all day, I wanted to do more exercise. It was a tough ride but I did it!

Then we ordered pizza for dinner and settled in to watch the Golden Globes. 

I need to see more movies, but I enjoyed the awards show, like usual.  I am always happy to see all of the celebs. 

Meanwhile Dave was in Vegas, he got a few photos from his plane.
