Just A Quick Synopsis Before I Write A True Post:

This weekend I was able to go on the high school ski trip.  It was an amazing weekend, full of fun, laughter, chanting ridiculous things (to borrow Mary's phrase), and a few bumps and bruises along the way.  Here's a quick run-down of the weekend while I take some time to write a real posting:

- Approximate average tempurature: 25*
- My approximate average snowboarding speed: 1 mph
- Approximate falls I took on the slopes: 50
- Number of times we played Disney Princess Old Maid: 9 (at least)
- Round of Mau played: 4
- Rules created in those rounds:  - Everytime you play a consecutive card you must name a Disney movie
                                                 - Whenever you play a 5 of any suit you must announce, "High Five!"n and proceed to give every other payer a high five.
                                                 - Whenever you play any heart from 2 through 10 you must sing the number and click your tongue.
                                                 - Whenever you play a card of the same number played by the person before you you must stand up.
                                                 - When you play an ace you must do "the Caleb" (point both index fingers toward the sky and then do a "rock on" motion with your head).
                                                 - When you play a jack you must chant, "It's a jack. *snap* It's a jack. *snap* It's a jack. *snap* It's a jack, Mr. White." (Watch "That Thing You Do!"...You'll get it.  Maybe.)
- Feet of snow dropped on us: 2
- Height of the snow - in actuality: thigh to waist
- Days we were snowed in: 1
- Angel visits: 2
- Times we chanted the "Mr. White" chant: Well, Amanda said it was 101, but I think it was probably only half that.
- Times we did "The Caleb": Probably around 80.  Really.  Maybe more. 
- Times we questioned whether the "Malt Shoppe" was a pub or an ice cream shop: 10 (it was actually both)
- Approximate number of times the chains fell off the car: 4


I promise there's more coming.


All in all, I think it was a great weekend.
