Cross Country Skiing

A couple of weekends ago Riley decided he wanted to do some skiing, knowing that downhill skiing was pretty risky for a pregnant lady to do he decided he wanted to do some cross country skiing. So that Saturday late morning, we went up to North Fork campground in the valley, they have a place to rent cross country ski's there and groomed trails for $15 dollars a person. Pretty sweet deal for a day of fun. We got all our gear and since it was a absolutely beautiful day outside we didn't have to wear coats or anything, then we started on the trails. Since the last time I cross country skied was in the 6th grade I wasn't quite pro but I only fell once and was very careful to not to hurt anything on the way down. Riley also only fell once, I didn't see it though he was behind be. It was so much fun, the only downside to it was this dang nausea associated to pregnancy. I had to stop a few times and just try to calm it down, Riley was great though and just supported me. Also side note, everybody was so friendly up there on the trails they all stopped and said hi, if they were going slow enough, there were some pretty intense people there on the trails as well, we just let them pass us. When we decided we had enough of the skiing we went to this great little restaurant in the valley and had a delicious pizza. (Normally I haven't been able to eat pizza with this pregnancy it makes me gag but it just smelled so good at that time). All together though it was such a great date! We enjoyed it so much! It was just nice to get away for the day and not think about school or work. Here are some pictures of our adventure.

The cute couple!
