Snow!

It has been another good weekend :)

Friday was girls night after work. We went to Amber's and she made us an amazing dinner of leek, garlic and brie stuffed chicken breast with panchetta (mine without it) and potato something that I can't spell and beans and asparagus with white wine and garlic sauce. It was very,very yummy. Then she made chocolate fondant with creme patissiere and strawberries for dessert. It is like having our own personal chef!

Then we came to my house and watched a movie before having about 4 hours sleep and leaving for Mt Buller at 5:30am

I wasn't planning on boarding, because I had been feeling really sick all week and wasn't sure if I'd have enough energy or be able to breathe properly. I ended up getting there and decided that I did want to try so I hired some stuff and Ashley and Amber tried to show me a few things. I managed to get down a little hill okay then we caught the chair lift up the mountain, had some lunch and then had a lesson.

I loved the lesson! I ended up being half way decent at boarding and it was sooo much fun. I went down the mountain a couple of times by myself and fell down far less often than I was expecting. I even wound up going a lot faster than I was expecting and still managed to stop. Yay. I am so proud of me and I really, really, really want to go back again this year, if not go a few times next year. Snow boarding is awesome!

Yes, I realise I am standing on an upside down board. The instructor told us to do this to get a feel for how to stand properly and this is the only photo of me on my board.

Here I am strapped in!

Haha today has been pretty lazy. Mostly consisted of being snuggled up in bed until 11:30 then getting up and realising how sore my body was (but not as sore as I was expecting it to be) then getting some Subway for lunch and fixing up a few things around the house before mum gets back from her holiday. Later on I'm going to Leigh's for some Lego Harry Potter and then volleyball and then I will come home and have dinner and go to bed :D
