A picture will follow later on today.. but for now I thought I would share my adventure for the day.. As some might not know I am 20 weeks pregnant.. So what I am about to tell you will make me sound foolish and stupid..
Ross, Rickey, Amelia and I headed out this morning to go ski.. The weather was cool but not as cold as it has been.. EVERYONE is heading home so the mountain is pretty much empty.. We headed to the top to hit some of our favorite runs.. (WHICH always includes trees, powder and some steep.) the first couple runs were fun and smooth.. Amelia and I normally stick together while the guys go off and do something.. we always meet somewhere in the woods but kind of do our thing.. The guys wore blades today so they were everywhere while Amelia and I were looking to ski in places where their were no tracks.. VELVET.. smooth.. gliding.. sailing.. some of the best snow is back in the trees..
Around 11 we decided we should head back.. give Ella some lunch and put her down and Rickey wanted to watch the game.. SO normally we like to take hellroaring basin.. which is one of the blacks off the basin and into hellfire.. normally we do glory hole but today we did Connies..!
NOW after all that here is the story...
The guys were off and so Amelia and I head down.. a VERY VERY steep hill.. when you are side ways you are still moving down.. for some reason I took a sharp turn and my skies flew off.. with that I start sliding down the mountain.. I grab a tree so I was lucky I didn't go too far.. dug my legs into the snow.. SO now I am in the snow up to my thighs and climbing up the mountain.. It would look like I am rock climbing. if you can imagine..
finally make it to Amelia and get both of skies. we got me up to a tree so I can get them on and off we go again.. AND again my skies pop off.. I got one the other one takes off down the mountain.. I can't see it anymore and I am sliding down the mountain as well.. hoping to grab a tree so I don't get seriously hurt.. and while I am sliding snow is falling on me so I am kind of getting buried while sliding.. I finally grab a branch.. but my ski is no where to be found.. Amelia ends up skiing up to me and we try to figure out what to do.. She heads down in search my my ski while I have 1 ski and 2 poles and head for thick tree so I can scoot from tree to tree.. AND then a miracle happens my ski is stuck in a tree standing up!!.. AMELIA found the ski..
I finally make it to her put my skies on.. and we notice my boots and skies need to go in for an adjustment.. my boots barely fit in my skies.. We head to more open space and down we go..! My body from the waist down is SO cold from being buried in the snow..
SO as Ross and I headed up the chair we decided no steep steep blacks for the rest of this year..
TO be on the safe side..
Its nap time for Ella here.. I am all showered and dressed about to do some Bible study and maybe have time to read.. THEN we are off to WHITEFISH..
TO all those wondering I am going to be way more careful.
no more connies this year..!
