Joy, happiness, all that is good and wonderful

We went skiing! We took the babe and went skiing! A few times in fact now! I'm going to be honest I was a little nervous about taking baby girl but we got up there the first day and saw two others with little children with them in a pack and talked for a minute, which eased my nerves a little. We also took it really easy, we did side country skiing not really back country skiing, and didn't go too far. We felt it out and tried a little more the next time. Ah but it was fantastic! Not as long or as much powder as we normally do out there in the back country but we got out! And the first thoughts that came to me were how joyous and incredible it is to be outside, being alive!  How blessed we are for such opportunities. I love being outside! It calms me down from stress in my life, and believe me sometimes I am a huge worrier and stressor. But Nothing can calm me down and clear my mind and bring me back to me more or better than being outside. Especially when that outside is away from most civilization. I highly recommend the great vast beautiful outdoors. I think it could help us all in our own ways.

The picture is of my Love and my Little One on one of the first days getting up in the snowy mountains.  Aren't they adorable! Look at those little sun glasses!
