Bragging Rights...

My hero on the ski...Clint. I never get sick of watching him ski.



Nate, also amazing...isn't that wall of water awesome?!



And me...notice, no dry suit baby...haha! That's right boys and girls, I pretty much rock!!









Ok, so one more post I didn't get to last night. Yesterday between conference sessions we headed out for one more ski. Cold? Very. Worth it? Oh SO worth it. Skiing is our favorite thing to do, mt. biking is a close second, but on the days I get to water ski are THE best days. Yesterday it was so cold that we decided to pull out the dry suit. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit me...it's a large. I was determined to ski and had been looking forward to it all week, so my rash guard was just going to have to do. Three of us skiied, Clint, Nate Hastings and me...the only girl, and the only one who braved the cold water without the dry suit. I'm pretty sure that calls for some serious bragging....don't you think?!

You guys are so fun! I am impressed at you skiing with no dry suit! Oh I love all of the other posts you have done too. You have a cute little family! I bet that was so fun to go to the REAL game!

I love all the new posts! I especially love your long gorgeous hair... it looks great! I am so proud of you for braving the cold water. I am a baby without the dry suit, but your skiing pics are awesome!

Rach, you're after my own heart...'cept for the whole tough-girl mt biking thing :S I'm a wimp in that dept! ;D
P.S. Where is this last ski trip at? Pineview? Echo?

Rachis, I think that you are fooling people! If you were big enough to wear the drysuit, then maybe you would have! But you are so freaking tiny it drowns you! Hehe! The secret is out, now people know the reason behind your braveness... even though boys are wussy! Love you!

Rachel! How are you girl? You two need to go pro in skiing :) seriously.

Preston lived in South Ogden but moved up to Eden just above the marina in Radford Hills when he was in Jr. High but kept going to school in South Ogden (Bonneville) so that's basically where his social life was.. so i don't think you'd know him!

It's good to hear from you :) I'm totally gonna stalk your blog now.

Hey Rach! Thanks for the compliments (me and nie nie??!!). I'm flattered! Almost done with the nursery.....pictures soon.

On a more important note- you do rock on a ski! I've never been able to do that, and had to succumb to the pressures of wakeboarding. :)

Excited to stop in at your blog often! You're welcome to my blog rantings anytime!
