Snowboarding!

Me & Michael just getting ready to "surf the white waves"..haha..


Michael doing a back flip, I don't know how to rotate the video sorry you have to see it side ways. I have a few more videos of him doing some pretty sweet tricks, but I just put this one up.

So yesterday Michael took me snowboarding, I was soo scared! haha...I've only been snowboarding once before and that was like 4 years ago and I knew i was not very good all I can remember is that I fell alot! So needless to say I was a little bit nervous about going snowboarding because I knew I would get hurt and also probably just embarass myself. But Michael insisted that I needed to try again and learn how to do it. So I gave in and went. It was actually a really fun day! I'm definitely still not good at snowboarding, but I did alot better than I did the first time I went. I kinda started to get the hang of it! So it was fun, I think if I get better at it, it'll be something I want to do more of. I did fall on my butt a few times though and so today I can barely sit, my tailbone is soo bruised! It has definitely not been fun sitting in the hard desks in class, but oh well I will live. As you can tell from the video Michael is really good at it, so it was fun to see him do his tricks. He was a pretty good teacher as well and was patient with me, so it was good that he helped me learn. However he did give himself a concussion that day and scared me pretty bad! He was going off these jumps and hitting them pretty hard and when he got to the last one he crashed pretty hard and was knocked unconscious. It was really scary, he was out for a little over a minute, so I thought for a second he was dead, but then he started to come around thank goodness...But it was really scary for a minute, and I remembered why I don't like snowboarding! haha...but he of course was ok with getting knocked out. The first thing he said when he woke up was, "Was that cool?" haha, which I told him it definitely was not. But other than that it was a really fun day and I have to say I think I will try going again!

Ice Skating at Millsite

Redneck, Lexis, Brooks, and me

Me, Chelsea, and Callie on our way to ice skate
New Years day we had an ice skating party at Millsite. This was only my second time ice skating, so therefore I was not the best! haha....I only fell twice! I did get a big cut on my hand though, it was sad! But worth it..We built a fire out on the lake and I was a little nervous we'd melt through the ice, but we didn't! It was way fun...Consider me the next Michelle Kwan!

New Years Eve...2009!!

Logan sandwich! Logan Debry, me, and Logan Huntsman

This is pretty much everyone that came to Chelsea's to play games, some are missing, but this is the gist of who was there..

Me & Callie playing a little guitar hero, I won of course! haha...


Me, Callie, Oz, Logan, and Bruce



Alexis, Chelsea, me, Callie, Oz, Brandt, and Dane. This was in the back of Brooks Behling's Semi! Ya he bought a semi truck! haha..it was awesome so we shoved a ton of people in there and cruised around Huntington at twelve thirty on New Years Eve, it was crazy!
New Years Eve was a blast! I saw a lot of my friends from high school that I haven't seen in a really long time so it was good! We went to my friend Chelsea Killian's house and played games! We had guitar hero, american idol, scene it, and then played cranium all night! It was soo fun, I love playing games and I have some really fun friends! We also had a bunch of treats of course that were good! I made 7 layer dip (thanks Mel for the good recipe :) ) and puppy chow, it was a big hit! New Years Eve is kinda an overrated holiday to me, but still a fun reason to get everyone together! I didn't really set resolutions this year, I guess I should have! But I did decide that I want to do better with exercising and eating better so I can lose the 15 I gained from my freshman/sophomore year, so I gave in and bought a pass to Gold's Gym! Two of my roommates have a pass there so I figured if I had people to go with I would be more motivated to go work out, so I'm excited to start working out everyday! And for signing up I get a free meeting with a personal trainer so tomorrow at five I get to meet with a trainer and he can whipe me in shape! ha..I'm a little nervous, but excited too!
