Saturday Birthday Ski Monday, Mar 6 2006
Family Life 4:48 pm
On Saturday, it was Sonia’s birthday! In keeping with a growing tradition, we got a group together and went skiing. This time at Horseshoe Valley. Thanks to Sean, Susan, Dan, Lisa, Tina & Jay for making the trek up to Carriage Hills to share in a perfect day of skiing and good times. Thanks to Tina in addition for scoring us a sweet deal on lift tickets and the apres-ski dinner. Thanks to Sonia’s Mom for performing the first FULL DAY OF BABYSITTING Olivia. Yes, it was our first time away together from home without our pride and joy. Ever. And not surprisingly, knowing the good hands she was in, we were quite relaxed and we thoroughly enjoyed our day. Not feeling guilty in any way, we were very happy and relieved to see a smiling baby that remembered our faces when we came through the door that night.
Hopefully the gang can turn words into action and succeed in the plan to get together on a much larger slope next year like Tremblant or St. Anne!
Sonia, here’s to many more years of me saying to you: “It’s your day!”.
PS: skiing is fun.

Birthday skiing is a fine tradition; one that has only been disrupted by a trip to Mexico (also a fun way to spend your birthday) and pregnancy (a happy means to an end type of situation, but not exactly birthday bash material). Hopefully next year the trek to Tremblant will occur, and it doesn’t even have to be for my birthday as long as Mike understands it is still my day!

Sonia, isn’t every day your day? Mike is there to serve
