Last Friday Mariah, Dan and I went skiing. We took Mariah as a birthday present, and Dan taught her the ropes. I decided to also try out skiing that night as well. Usually I just go snowboarding.
Well, if I learned anything that night its that I should stick to what I'm comfortable with. I skied down the mountain once...kind of. I actually skied about halfway down before I totally wiped out. When I fell I twisted my knee pretty badly and also smashed my head in pretty good. Lucky for me I refuse to get on the mountain without a helmet. So after that wipe-out I actually walked down the rest of the way. I simply couldn't convince my body to keep going when it hurt that badly.
Once I was at the bottom of the run I strapped into my snowboard. That made the night so much better!! Except my knee was still kind of weird so I didn't have as much power as I would have liked.
Overall the night was a success! I'm pretty sure Mariah is hooked on skiing now! We ended the evening by going to Olive Garden, which is always wonderful!
