Movie Night!

Saturday night, after a full day of skiing, swimming and Chinese take out, Stella and I snuggled in for movie night. On menu this time was the movie Fame! Unfortunately I fell asleep but Stella said the movie ROCKED!!! Thank goodness for Netflix !!! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!! Much Love!

Music,,,,

Stella and I always jam on the way up to swim team practice. This Friday was no different. Stella had a swim meet, and so did mama. I didn't realize I missed competing so much. Stella's swim team organized a parents meet along with the kids regular meet. I swam the 50 back stroke sprint, 50 freestyle sprint and the 50 breast stroke sprint. I won two of the three!! Woot ! I had an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction off the blocks in the 50 freestyle and no, it had nothing to do with my bathing suit ....my goggles came off as I dove into the watter. I did beat all the other moms and dads in the breast and back stroke. Maybe it's time to get into some masters swim team competitions? Nothing like a little Miley Cyrus to get us hoppin for the meet! :) Stella swam all 4 events, breast, back, free and fly. She won 2, was 2 nd in one and we're still working on getting our fly stroke together. (She can kick my butt in it, it's a really freakin tough stroke) What a fun nig...

Ski Team!

A few weeks ago Stella started training with the Eldora Ski Team every Saturday. Now Saturday's can't come soon enough. I get up at 6 and get Stella up at 6:30 and we are out the door by 7. Usually we get up to Eldora around 8:30 after making a stop to get mama coffee and Stella and donut or two! :) By 9am Stella is ripping up the slopes with her coach (Dave) and 5 other little girls her age. She is having such a blast it's hard to believe we didn't do this sooner. I never noticed these signs before and thought it was pretty cool the ski area was showing some love to the local ski programs. Stella proceed to then inform me that they've been there for quite some time. Oops! :) Stella and two of her little ski buddies! Stella ripping up the GS course! At the end of the day which is usually at 3 all the kids have to help tear down the course. Stella is doing such an awesome job that it makes me one proud mama. Much Love!!!
