white weekend.

We lucked out this last weekend with awesome weather. I even cracked open a window this afternoon! Mid 30's, sun shining. I couldn't have asked for a better weekend. On Saturday we took my sister's family skiing at Spirit Mountain. Most of us decided to go CC skiing instead of downhill which was fine by me! It was a beautiful day spent skiing through the woods (falling repeatedly) and relaxing in the chalet with a beer in hand. It was my niece Lo's first time cc skiing and she really loved it. Her and I ended up ditching everyone and going on another 5k. I don't remember the last time I laughed so much with her. It meant a lot to be out with her like that. Especially since she's 12 going on 21. I hope she will always think of Duluth as her second home. ...............
On a completely different note. I watched 500 Days of Summer this afternoon and was disappointed. Is it just me or does Zooey Deschanel always seem to be playing the same role? I think she's super adorable and I even kind of like her music, but I find her annoying in movies. There I said it.
(Oh. And I also watched 17 Again (Lo picked it out...) and it was better than I thought it would be. There I said it.)

Life Aquatic

I took Lolo to the Aquarium this weekend. It was pretty awesome. We saw otters, tons of fish, snakes, sea horses (amazing), and a HUGE bald eagle. We even touched Amazon stingrays and a sturgeon! More on the race later... {a cat fish that was fond of Lo}

{i kissed a moose and i liked it....i embarrassed Lo by singing this for the rest of the day}
