After a relaxing Thanksgiving, Chris and me headed up to the High Country for a long weekend. On Friday, we skiied in Keystone with our friend Josh and his friend Phil. After lunch, Chris got his teles, but the mountain was too crowded. We spent the night with Josh and Amber, which was a great time as usual. I was in bed by 9 PM. On Saturday, we went to Breckenridge and Chris did his teles all day. I hung out with him. He is linking his turns and looking good! He really likes it. We watched some of the Auburn game (and then turned it when we couldn't watch anymore) and then went to dinner with our friend Dave. We stayed in Breckenrige and then got up on Sunday morning and skiied some more. It had snowed all night and snowed all day. It was finally a great powder day on the mountain! We left around noon since we knew traffic was going to be bad. It took us four hours to get home and there was cars spinning out everywhere.

Thanksgiving Turkey Trot

Chris and me ran in the Turkey Trot this morning with our friend Dave. Last night over dinner, we decided it would be fun to dress up for the 5K. Luckily for us, Van & Carolyn never throw out anything and we had taken some of their windbreakers from the early 90s. I can't believe they wore these and were serious! We had alot of fun at the race. Some of these Boulder people take a Turkey 5K way too seriously!

Atlanta & Trussville

Chris had to work in Atlanta last week and I went down on Wednesday to spend some time with him. On Wednesday night, we met some of my soriority sisters at Mellow Mushroom for dinner. I missed Meredith on Thursday night, so I went and saw her and Lilli at the mall on Friday before leaving town. We went over to Trusville on Friday night and it was really fun. Stacey came over and we went to see Devin and her new baby, Jackson. Mom cooked Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday, which was very good!

On Friday, we went and watched "Children of Winter", which is the new Warren Miller film. It was really good and got us super excited for the ski season. However, Chris missed the first part of the movie. He landed at DIA and the 4Runner had a flat tire! On Saturday, we went up to Keystone and spent the night with our friends Josh and Amber. We met up with some other friends for dinner and took it easy in the hot tub then went to bed. On Sunday, we did some skiing at Keystone. It was fun, but there was just a couple of runs open and it was crowded. Chris did telemark the entire day and Josh helped him out, which was really nice. He really enjoyed it, but his toes were hurting really bad at the end of the day.

It Has Been A While...

Well, it has been a while since our last post. It has been busy with Chris being out of town most of the time during the weekdays. He has been in Atlanta, then he did some training her in Boulder, and this week he is in Florida. Tonight we are going to see Warren Miller's new film Children of Winter with some friends. I have a feeling this will get us fired up to skiing for the weekend. I'll take some photos!

Below is just some random photos. We bought the dogs a dragon outfit for Halloween of the clearance rack at Target. However, large wasn't as big as we thought it would be, but it was worth the $0.99 for the laughs. Chris went fly fishing last Saturday with some friends. Today I woke up and it had finally snowed at our house!
