Boba tea, Skis and Sushi....

The ranch had their counselor reunion over New Years and part of the reunion was going to Baltimore Harbor via Metro to ring in the New Year! It was awesome! The best fireworks I have seen! I love those people and I am so glad I got to celebrate with them! While we were there Taco found a place that sells boba tea! It is a drink that he had in Taiwan, and we tried it! It was pretty good, there were tapioca pearls in the bottom and so you drink it with really big straws. The slimy pearls shoot up the straw and into your mouth. It is really weird and funny at the same time.

On Monday it was Taco's 21st birthday and so we all went skiing! Well, we went skiing and it was his birthday but he likes to ski so it is all good! Anyway, Taco was a very patient teacher and I was soon up on the skis and doing pretty good! I didn't fall off the ski lift!!!!!!! and I didn't wipe out too bad! He did have to help me up a few times! haha I loved it! I went fast (because i couldn't stop) and i went backwards ( because i turned too sharp) and i did some flips (because i wiped out!!!!!) It was awesome! Some of Beth's friends came with us and one of them got hurt fairly early on in the day. She couldn't ski anymore and since we all came together they gave us vouchers to come back and finish our passes! I can't wait to go back!!!!!!

Tonight was Merson Madness! We go over to the Merson's house for dinner and games the first Thursday of every month! We made sushi! It was fun and yummmy!
