what to wear no. 030411

I'm going skiing next week. Like, real-live-in-Colorado-mountains skiing. Cute Husband's birthday is next week and for our big 3+0's we've decided to take little adventures as gifts, so we're packing bags filled with many warm fleece products and heading to the Colorado mountains. He loves to ski and jump off scary snowy mountains. I love the read. We're a match made in heaven, I tell you! Everyone who was with me on that fateful day back in my freshman year at JMU is laughing right now. They are laughing (hard) because they can probably remember my first (and only) ski adventure when I basically cried the entire way up the lift (holy moly are those not the scariest devices ever built?), fell (hard again) upon landing on "solid" ground at the top, proceeded to go down the "bunny" hill on my bum the entire way and promptly turned my skis in and drank hot chocolate for the rest of my day on the slopes. My only regret was not bringing a book. This time, friends, I will be taking a lesson. Maybe two. And I will come back a much better skier this time, I just know it. Plus, I hear there are hot tubs and beautiful lounges just waiting to be enjoyed at these ski places. Yay!
