Valentines Weekend

I've been really busy with work the last few months, so I had to make sure this Valentine weekend was perfect.

Saturday we awoke, had breakfast, then off to the gym. We took a class called 24 Lift which is a 1hr class of non stop sets with dumb bells and a barbells. By the end you are beat.

After class we had a sandwich then showered up to go out. We went and saw "Valentine's Day" the movie. It was packed with couples out on their Valentines day dates. We were running late so Danielle let me out so I can get a seat while she parked the car. I felt a little funny buying a ticket for one to a chick flick on Valentines day. It was kinda funny, I got a few strange looks. Danielle said she felt the same when she came in. The movie itself was great. It was shot in a few different views and tied all together at the end. There were also a ton of popular actors/actresses in it.

To complete the day we went to our favorite Sushi restaurant, Sushi Moto for dinner.

Valentine's day I woke up early and made Danielle's favorite breakfast, Crepes. We needed to store up energy for our afternoon of Cross Country skiing. This was our first time ever trying it. We decided to go to Donner Summit to the Clair Tappaan lodge. They have 12km of trails which head up towards the backside of Boreal. Went rented our gear and headed out. We had a lot of fun and made fools of ourselves at the same time. We each crashed a few times. Cross country skis suck for going downhill, or maybe it was just us. My binding was cracked on one of the skis so the ski kept popping off which didn't help. It was still a great time and I'd do it again. I want to try Skate Skiing next time.

After skiing we went and got massages to help with all the pains from crashing and the Lift class yesterday. The weekend was wonderful. Back to work tomorrow. Here are some pics of Danielle being a goofball. :-)
