DISCLAIMER (if parenthetical statements bother you, don't read this post)
Last Thursday was stinkin' awesome.
- Doug passed his defense. (and will soon be published x4)
- Maria learned of her acceptance to BYU. (Cha-ching!)
- I got a 63 on a midterm. (okay, not so awesome)
- We drove up to Ogden. (again, not so awesome)
- We began a weekend full of family fun. (super awesome)
Snow skiing is a family favorite. This year, my family came to Utah to ski - which has, literally, the best snow on earth. Especially this year (ahem, week)! We had a blast. Thursday night, Doug and I drove up to Ogden where we were staying (thanks, Nelsons!).

Friday, I went to Snowbasin with my family:
 |
| Apparently, Maria doesn't much care for my face. |
I even tried snowboarding. It was harder than I expected...
 |
| The quality isn't great (horrible actually), but you can tell that I'm about to fall down. |
Anyway, the snow was perfect. So perfect that it might have found its way into my mouth. Don't judge, sometimes you just have to follow your heart!
Saturday was for the experts: Maria, Daniel, and Dad (in no particular order). and I tagged along (I used to be the best, now I take 4th place haha- cest la vie). At Powder mountain they groom only one trail. Awesome. For those of you who have not experienced that much powder, it's intense. Daniel looked like he was bathing in snow (except for when he was going off jumps...every other minute). I fell like fifty times. But I rocked like 100 times. Booyah.
Here is a clip of my last run (much of the powder had been skied through and thus manageable). Sexy, right?
That's what I thought.
