Utah 2009

Amy is a master traveler. She takes airports, airplanes, airport trams, hotels and rental cars with joy. She relished the hot and cold pools in our resort. Since she won't agree to gloves, hat and coat without a fight, I feel she doesn't have the maturity to warrant the cost/benefit ratio of ski lessons. Heck, we can't even get her to wear tights or socks with her flimsy little dresses. But on our last day, we outfitted her with ski boots and all, and took her to the flattest of flat areas by the exquisite Silver Lake Lodge at Deer Valley. She was all full of, "I don't need help, I know how to do this...": Until she got on the snow. Then she was tear city.

Don skied all day, had a 90 minute deep-tissue massage and then dinner at an asian-fusion joint for his ____ birthday!

Best weekend ever!

Dinner at home Friday night: I cooked salmon. Amy didn't want "salmon", she thinks "salmon" is sushi. She wanted "fish". She ate 3 oz of cooked salmon and cried when I told her we ate all of it!!! What a silly head.

I did yoga at the lovely Atma Bodha studio on Saturday, then we took a walk in the park with our neighbors, and then we went to Pasha with friends. We even coordinated with Aunt Kathy and Uncle Cliff to watch Amy. It was really fun.

Today: Ahhh! Special My Yoga Spirit yoga opportunity. Sharon Gannon, co-founder of Jivamukti Yoga was in town for a class. It was wonderful. Then Don, Amy and I had sushi for lunch and then we got ready for the HRFCC CNY celebration. This year was the best ever. The Jow Ga Kung Fu performers did dragon dance, lion dance, kung fu, chi gong and tai chi. The Mei Hua dancers sang and danced, and the Tidewater Chinese School provided a marvelous umbrella dance. We were happy to be joined by Aunt Kathy and Uncle Cliff, and my new friends D and J.

Life is good!

The weekend

I've been working out a lot and enjoying Don's new car, Don's been monkeying around, and Amy has been doing yard work.
