"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Snowmobile Ride

For Josh's Birthday we went on a snowmobile ride, just the two of us. It was a blast! Now I know why Josh spends all his days off on his sled. It isn't very often that I get to go with him, so today was an amazing day. Josh took me on some pretty steep hills...well steep to me anyway. On one of the hills I got almost all the way to the top and I chickened out and tried to go back down and ended up stuck. I am obviously not the pro rider like Josh. He said to me " you have to be comfortable with your sled, it's an art kinda like ballet." Ha I think ballet on foot is a little easier than on a sled. Anyway we had a wonderful day together and I was so glad that I got to go with him.

That's funny how he compared ballet to riding a snowmobile, I dont think I would have made that connection:) It will be way fun getting to know you better. Hey I don't know if Katie told you but you should check out
