I know I haven’t posted in a while. I promise
you, it is not because I have “writer's block”. I have just been busy. Honestly
there is a plethora of topics that I want to write about. I just don't know
where to start. It really is an epic task. So my alpine racing season is
officially over (today was the Loveland derby). Alpine wise, I didn’t preform
my best, however this was definitely my best ski season yet, and I honestly
feel like I am skiing better than I ever have before. I started doing Skicross
and let me tell you, it was the best decision I have made thus far in my life
(Yes, I am aware that is not saying all that much). I met so many incredible
people this ski season and was able to shred with so many good friends. From
Austria to Colorado and everywhere in between, this season has been one for the
record books. I really wish I had taken more photos and videos (and blogged
more) so that I could create my own edit but, alas, I was lazy and don’t have
much video or photographic proof of this epic winter.
Since 7 is my favorite number here is a list of
the 7 best parts of my ski season and a list of 7 thank you’s!

I
could not have done it without you:
1. My Parents- I mean you made
me… and pay for me…
2. My Roommates- Thanks for
helping me pack, bringing me stuff I forget, pretending that you don't care
when I am incredibly loud ridiculously early in the morning, and putting up
with the mess that is me during ski season (and the entire year) and all the
accouterments that of my mountain lifestyle.
3. My Teammates- Thanks for
being the best teammates I ever could have imagined!
4. Each and every one of my
ski friends- despite the fact that there are no friends on a powder day, skiing
is not nearly enough fun alone!
5. My coaches- for putting up
with all of my crap
6. The MacConnell division
coaches for all of their incredible support this season!
7. My teachers- Thanks for
bearing with me throughout all the missed classes.
So the only video I
have from ski season is below. Little girls, truth or dare, a crowded copper lodge and a swede. Need I say more? Sorry Anton! (you were a beautiful ballerina though!)
