It has been almost two years ago that my family and I went skiing in Angel Fire, New Mexico for Spring Break. I had finally defeated the forces of gravity and was conquering the greens with little to no struggle and I wanted more! I wanted to be at the level of skiing that my husband and children were. I wanted to connect with my kids on something they each enjoyed doing and graduate from the “boring mom” bunny slopes and be deemed “Awesome Mom” of the blue and green trails! It was the last run of the last day skiing and it was just my husband and I enjoying some time together while my sister stayed with the kids. I suggested to my husband that I wanted to try to ski the slopes of a blue run. My confidence exploded when my husband agreed I was ready to take the plunge.

Tumbleweeds
I don’t know if or how familiar you are with tumbleweeds. Being born and raised in the southwest parts of Kansas, it seemed sometimes we were inundated with these pesky weeds. The winds caused them to get caught up in the wind breaks and in drought or raging wind became an added fuel to fire. To me, a Kansas farm girl, it made for fun chasing after one in the summer winds and heat. Either way, growing up with tumbleweeds was a familiar nuisance or added fun however you looked at it.
