I'm not as young as I once was

It's been a busy weekend, which was preceded by a very busy week. I worked last weekend 3 12-hour shifts at work and then another on Tuesday. They were all good shifts but busy. 

I am the 5th grade girls co-leader at our church's AWANA program. My good friend and co-leader, Michelle (she is also on the ski patrol), and I decided to take our girls skiing on Friday at our local ski resort. It was a lot of fun! We had 4 girls come along, Anna, Valerie, Alyssa and Jazmine. We would have had a fifth but Callie got sick that day. We missed you Callie!!!!! We had a blast though, and the girls enjoyed it immensely. That was the first time I had been at BV in the 10 years that I have lived in Northern Minnesota.  God was really good to us. The weather was cold but bearable. The girls had good, adventurous attitudes and were a joy to be around. We were also blessed with no injuries. I will definitely go again!

This was also a hockey weekend. The Beavers took on the Under-18 USA team in an exhibition game. Brad and I  went last night as usual, they won 6-3. It was definitely a good game!

All that to say...I AM REALLY SORE TODAY!!!! I have aching calves and sore upper back muscles. It has been awhile since I skied last and I definitely forgot what muscles get used. It was definitely fun and I hope to go again, but I am certainly feeling it today!
