Playing hooky...

We got back from New Hampshire last week. Sweep Pea was pretty tired and her leg was still hurting so she skipped practice last Thursday. It ended up being the last weeknight practice. Massanutten switched to their late season schedule which meant they closed at 5 on weeknights. She did go last Saturday and had a good practice.

Monday we got some flurries here but Massanutten got several inches. Only problem was that we couldn't get down until Thursday. Thursday we decided to play hooky, skip school and bible study and go play in the snow. We took Rosie Jane with us and the two of them went skiing/boarding for the day.

Today was the last practice for the season. Massanutten is closing for the season tomorrow. Good thing since it's going to be in the 70s most of the week. Today was a fun practice, they played some games and just had a good time. When they were done their shortened practice, there was a cookout at the Mid-Mountain Grill, which usually supports the ski and snowboard team. Today it was a picnic to clear out the leftovers from the season.

I had a chance to talk to the coaches for a bit. We were looking for some advice on buying a snowboard for Sweet Pea,. It's actually her birthday present but we may get it now since the current season boards are on sale. We'll see what the ski shop still has for her when we return her board next week.
