At the top of the chair lift!!! about the take the plunge over the edge!!

Well im almost through my first winter and it has been a blast!!! I am learning to ski! today i went skating on the lake.. the olympic torch came through this little town and Australia day was awesome in the cafe and even better when it ended with a beautiful lamb roast dinner...

Skiing is great fun.. really hard and i have soooo many bruises but my friend Wendy took me up the chair lift last week and i went down the big hill... i dont think i have fallen so many times in my life but i got down (almost cried) but i did it!
Wendy and Kathy and Candace and I are planning to go to Idahoe to go skiing in a week or so! so practice practice practice this week!!!! It is going to be a girls weekend and should be really fun!
Skating on the lake was so so so good today! I fell and have a massive bruise on my knee but it was worth it! The sun was shining and the mountains looked unbelievable with the snow on top and we were able to skate out into the middle of the lake and enjoy the sun!!!
People drive across the lake in the winter has a short cut to get from where i live to town so we then drove across the lake to get home... to add to a perfect afternoon the sun was setting and it was incrediable!
Australia day was so fun!!! I made lamingtons, meat pies, caramel slice, ANZAC cookies, pavolva and had a sausage sizzle.. i was so tired after cooking so much but had a great time listening to Australian music and just talking to people about home!
After work and a few Australian beers i went to Finn and Wendy's house and they made a lamb roast! We drank some aussie wine and just chilled out! It was awesome!
The olympic torch was just so amazing! we live in such a small town and to have people run it through was so so cool!
well there have been a few other exciting things like Ashten (a staff member from Gloria Jeans) was in Banff so i went with some friends to see her...
The Hoodoo's had a gala dinner and everyone that went dressed up and it was such a awesome night!! the food was great and there was a ice bar and some other cool things...

Overall Jan 2010 has been great!!!

I miss you all and hope you also had a great Jan!
