Oops

(Imperial Bowl!!)

Ooops haven't blogged in awhile...Kinda forgot about it with so much going on these past two weeks. Lately my lessons have been pretty good. I had one student for about a week and he was visually impaired which was a new experience for me. It took some getting used to but I really enjoyed the lessons. He had a pretty short attention span and thoroughly enjoyed giving me a heart attack. The lesson was challenging and took some getting used to in order to figure out what rewards worked for him. My last day with him was so fun, my brother and mom had just gotten in the night before so Chris decided to be my volunteer for the lesson which I think really opened his eyes to what kind of work I was doing. The next day momma and I spent a girls day shopping and catching up on everything which was amazing! I skied that afternoon with my brother and did a few black diamonds which was a nice change of pace from my usual lessons. That night Kevin came over to the condo for dinner and a game of Farkle with the fam which was so much fun. It is really nice because Kevin fits into the group really well and has fun with it. My brother however hauls ass down the mountain so keeping up with him is ridiculously difficult but so much fun. Kevin and Adam joined us for a few runs which was fun. The next day (Christmas) Kevin, Adam, Chris and I skied all day together which was AWESOME. We went up to the Imperial Bowl which is double black terrain and hiked up to the top of the peak which was expert only terrain. This scared the bejeezers out of me but I am so glad I did it. I felt so good about my skiing afterwards and had such a blast. That night the boys ad Charley came over for Christmas dinner. We all scrunched into the living room and ate together then played Apples to Apples which I really enjoyed. The fam left yesterday which was a bummer because I really enjoyed having them here and spending time. I love my family so much and when we are all together its so nice. My last two days of lessons have been great my student is so much fun and such a jokester which is awesome. He skies blues which makes for a fun day. Tomorrows lesson is a different boy but he is a sweetie and great skier. Can't wait for more lessons!
