21 years later and it was fun!

I went skiing with DH ( and DD & DS got to go with us today.) It was so fun and we did two runs down the bunny hill and then went to the more challenging hills. ( remember, it's Iowa , not in the mountains ..hahaha)

I only fell once and it was just onto my side and popped right back up. It was super warm and the snow is melting like crazy. It got up to 50, last week we were in the single digits. DH didn't fall once, so we were pretty amazed at how skiing came back to us so quickly!

I had a lot of fun and I'm so thankful for my band. I couldn't have done this a year ago.

Okay, I don't look like a snow bunny, but I'll post the pics anyway. I think I look kinda dorky.

 What's wrong with dorky?

Kristi -- you skinny minnie, you!!

So glad the you were able to get out and enjoy the great outdoors!

We had 18 degrees here about 10 days ago (record breaking cold) --- today it was 78 and sunny.
We took Maxine (the 6 year old lab-mix) on a strenuous 3 1/2 hour hike --- fun, but exhausting!

It is so much fun to be able to exercise hard and feel really worn out -- not from carrying 130 extra pounds, but from climbing hills!

You go, friend!!!!

Very cool!  it was a great day today!  not much longer and all the snow will be gone!

The smile on your face say's it all.  You look so happy and slim

Keep on rocking it   Glad you came back in one piece.

I have only ever snow skied once in my life.  We went on a school trip to the snow. One of the boys in my class fell off the top bunk the 1st night we were there.  Off to hospital to get the arm plastered and he was skiing down the hill within 2 days.  I took one step with my skies on and got all tangled and stuck in the snow.

The rest of the trip I stayed in the coffee shop by the fire and drank hot chocolate.  Can we say klutz

 Looks like you had a blast!
