ski trip 2010

We spent last week skiing in Northern MI at Nubs Nob. It's in Petoskey/Harbor Springs. My parents came with us. Dan's parents were planning on coming as well, but Dan's grandpa Harmon has congestive heart failure and hasn't been doing well so they didn't feel right about being gone in case something happened. It was a wonderful trip and the girls are quickly becoming excellent skiers! Many of you all are facebookers so probably have already seen these pics, but I decided I HAD to update the blog. So here they are again...This pic should actually be one of the last pics since it happened on day 5 of our trip. Dan had torn his ACL (again) just weeks before we left on this trip, but the Dr. said he should be fine as long as he was wearing his brace. He did fine until day 5 when while skiing he hit a bump and it dislocated! Ouch! It happened 2 more times that day so we had to call it quits and leave a day early so he could get to his surgeon. Long, long story short he has a severely torn acl and meniscus so surgery is scheduled for tomorrow at 2:oo.
Look at those tiny skis!!!! Sooooo cute!
