World Cup Bobsledding!


The Russians getting ready to rip off their gear and race

This is where they run and jump in their sleds



One of the many reasons that I love Derric so much is because he always finds fun activities for us to do together as a family! They are always out of the ordinary and little or no money! We have been to plays in the park, free movie nights in Park City and the sheep herding championship was one of mine and the kids favorites! It is amazing what those dogs can do with those sheep! Well this week it was up to Park City again for the World Cup Bobsledding! Totally free! There were the teams from all around the world competing for the world cup. These are the guys that are going to be racing in to 2010 olympics! We got to get right up to the front where they start-Derric and I and the kids were blown away with how they would scream at each other and slap each other to get pumped up for the race. It was actually a little scary when the Germans were getting ready to race, they just sounded angry and the kids got a little nervous. It was a fun experience and a lot better then when I went during the olympics because there were no crowds and you could actually see the track.
