Growing up, my family didn't really go on many vacations. My parents were both in public education and my Dad was in school quite a bit, so aside from trips with the church and weekend getaways to Dallas for some roller-coaster riding and CrackJack-eating fun, we didn't travel much. However, I have had several opportunities to go skiing in Colorado and that is my idea of a great vacation. It's a break from the hot humidity of Houston and it comes with periods of a good work-out and relaxation. Plus, the snow-covered mountains are just amazing:
[I'm actually going to my parents' this weekend, so if I find older pictures from Winter Park ski trips, I'll try to upload them. If I do find pictures, I'll fill you in on one of my most embarassing moments while growing up...]
Here I am in Breckenridge in 2008 with my then-future-in-laws:
And last year in Keystone with my new hubby (and friends that aren't pictured):

Now if only I could fit into those jeans again...
