Ski Heaven

I went skiing on Saturday (as I try to do every Saturday) and we brought a camera along this time to take pictures by all our favorite signs. The skiing this Saturday was AMAZING! The Canyons had just been dumped on with a bunch of new snow, so the powder was pretty nice. Even despite the snow and the thick, thick fog, it was an awesome day.

Makes me want to go skiing! Does The Canyons still have a run called "Slaughter House"? That used to be my favorite run before the advent of short skis and moguls.

cute pictures.

I miss the snow. . .sometimes.

Nice model shot there at the top, pigtails and all! I hope you didn't hit any major jumps without me!

I haven't been to The Canyons in such a long time! These pictures made me miss it.

Melissa said...

Yeah...Mandy tries to convince me that those black diamond runs are easier because there are fewer people on them (there is a REASON there are fewer people!). My "Slaughter House" days are definitely over! Mandy is a good skier and definitely the cutest skier on the slopes. She is also a good sport about waiting for me and quitting early.....unlike Russell, who had to be the last off the mountain even though our legs were ready to fall off.

Ahh, thanks mom! But you know you taught me everything I know, and going skiing with you is good for me becuase it teaches me that there is more to skiing than going straight down the mountain (even if I have a tendency to still do that).

I like the picture of you guys sitting down, you have a cute smile. I haven't been skiing for too long. Maybe I'll just fork out the money and go one day with you.

Allison said...

I like the first picture, you guys look straight up thug with those thug mugs. What a crew you roll with!
Next time we better see some video:)

That last comment was from Dave, not me. I hope that was obvious. I mean, I love the phrase "straight up thug with those thug mugs" and all, but that creative genius definitely came from Dave.

haha, I figured it was...it sounds like Dave lingo.
