sun-kissed, snow-kissed, ski-kissed

We got 20 inches of snow on the mountain last night. Landon is there right now, enjoying the biggest powder day we've had all season!

As a novice skier, I was a bit intimidated by almost 2 feet of fresh snow! I am lousy at powder skiing. So I stayed home. I spent my morning working on Sponsorship at Starbucks, sipping a freshly brewed cup of Verona, my favorite. I know, it's almost shameful to ditch the slopes when we had the sweetest dumpage of snow all season. I'm a bit embarrassed...

Instead, I took Duvick skiing for an hour. There's no way I was going to miss out on this beautiful day! I just didn't want to be tumbling down the mountain, freezing cold, soaking wet, sore to my bones. And on Saturday I actually lost my ski in the powder after a tumble. It took Landon and I 30 minutes to find it on the mountainside. So I decided for a low-key hour of skiing instead. So Duves and I skied cross country around the lakes and the open fields in our neighborhood. 

It was wonderful. We both had a lot of fun. And I just love that I've got the freckles to show it!

Why does my neck look so weird in this picture?
