Snow-tivities

We have really been enjoying

the snow around here lately.

Eric is already wishing it would 

snow again - I think there's still 

plenty of snow on the ground.

Anyway, here are some pictures

of us playing in the snow with Oliver,

followed by some pictures of us

skiing in Park City.  

Oliver - demonstrating how deep the snow is

We went to see a Warren Miller

Film recently.  (Warren Miller puts out

a new film each year - all about skiing

and snowboarding.  It's pretty cool)

With our ticket purchases

we were given lift tickets to a resort in

Park City called the Canyons!

We decided to use our

lift tickets yesterday.

Eric and I got to try out

our new skis (We both got

new skis recently - I also got

a new jacket, gloves, and goggles)!

The first picture is one of my favorites....    

The first ski run we did was

called Boomer.  For those of you

not familiar with Oklahoma Football,

Boomer is something we chant at OU

football games.  One side of the stadium

yells BOOMER and then the other side

yells SOONER!  So I was pretty excited 

to see a little piece of Oklahoma in Utah.

Then we skied down a little further and

saw the above sign.  BROKEN ARROW!

My hometown!  Pretty cool, huh?!

Riding the ski lift - gorgeous views!

Eric took this cool artsy picture of our shadows from the ski lift.

Last run of the day...

Riding a lift down to the car...

We enjoyed our day together.

Eric is helping me become a better

skier.  It's a lot of fun!

The Canyons resort was pretty nice

but it was like a maze.  There were

so many different lifts to ride - 

Eric described it like Willy Wonka's

Chocolate Factory - you have to go

backwards to go forwards.  Haha.

But we both love our new skis!

And I stayed warm in all my new gear!

We are looking forward to many more

skiing adventures together!
