So as we all head into the new year we are all faced with the concept of New Years resolutions. Oh I have made
them before only to fall short of my goal as life (family and work) take over my good intentions. So this year I decided to get my friend Angela involved in my New Year resolution so that I have to be accountable to someone other than myself. Oh, I guess this would be a good place to tell you what my New Years Resolutionis.........well the plan is to be
physically active for a minimum of 30 minutes for all 365 days of the year. That is right every single day of 2012. So now you might be asking why are you blogging about it? Well Angela and I were trying to figure out how to keep each other on track, she lives in London and I live in Collingwood. We tried google calendar but that was really frustrating and then Angela sent me an excel sheet that had dates on it and that is not that much fun. So when I was snowshoeing the other day I thought to myself maybe I should blog about our efforts - make us accountable not only to each other but anyone else who might be interested in what we are up to. So that is the beginning of this blog I hope you enjoy and I look forward to your comments.

Baby Its Cold Outside.....

Well day 13th - Friday the 13th! and to top it all off it is now cold and snowy!  Don't get me wrong I like winter - one of those people that figured that if we have winter I might as well  enjoy it - ok not really I married a man who loves winter.  A skier through and through. So it was sort of a decision that if I was going to marry him I should probably love winter too - makes for a better relationship!  Well Sean has definately shown me over the years that winter is fun and you can do so many active things in the winter.  When we first started dating he was so excited to take me skiing - he basically grew up on skis - lived at the base of Blue Mountain and ski raced (which allowed him to ski all over the world) - so there we are at the top of Smart Alec - not a baby hill and he said ok lets go......  well I have been skiing ever since!  We live in Collingwood and love that we can go skiing anytime and it is so fun with the kids - who by the way have been skiing since they could walk.  Well I kind of got off topic there and I have to go - I was trying to lead up to what I am doing for my physical activity today - hockey with the girls.  I know you are thinking what does that have to do with the winter and being outside - well we play on the outdoor rink - that's right we play outside in the cold and snow!
