Another Fun Weekend

Well I made it through my hectic week last week.  It was exhausting, but also a lot of fun since I had so much going on.  Even though I’m glad to be back online and I have to admit I kind of enjoyed stepping away from the computer for a bit.  As much as I love blogging, I enjoyed the real world, free of blogs for a bit.

In other news, I had another great long weekend.  I headed upstate to go skiing/snowboarding with Rylan.  We went to Stratton Mountain in Vermont and had so much fun!  One of my friends lives in Vermont, but was away for the weekend.  She said we could stay at her house anyways, so we took her up on that offer.  I love her house.  It is an adorable old house that you could only find in a place like Vermont.Stratton Chair Lift

We had a great day skiing/snowboarding, but boy was it COLD.  The wind was probably the worst part, especially when you are sitting on the chair lift.

Rylan is from Lake Placid, NY so she grew up skiing.  Before this year she hadn’t been in over 10 years, but she did a great job picking it back up.  Much better than I did!Julie&Rylan Ski Trip

As for my sick snowboarding skills I think I handled myself pretty well this weekend.  I was really nervous that it would be super crowded since it was a holiday weekend, but it turned out to be not that bad.  I fell a couple of times including running into a girl as I was trying to slow down at the bottom of the hill.  Oops!

Other than a few falls we had a great time!  So much fun, that Rylan decided that she needed a brand new pair of skis.  new skis

  6. Rylan is such a cool name! Looks like you had a fun time skiing! I always tell myself I should learn since I live less than 5 miles away from a popular skiing place (I don’t know what the word is for that, sad I know haha) AND you’d think living in MN it’s something I’d want to take up… Yeahhh I’ll get to it sometime. Have a great Monday!
