Back when I became a member of Kappa Alpha Theta almost 18 years ago, I knew I was on a special journey to make friends for a lifetime, and my dear friends Heidi and Terese are perfect examples of that. Heidi and I were Thetas together at Kansas State. When we both lived in Phoenix in our 20s, we met our friend Terese, a Mizzou Theta. Now we are all separated by many miles, as Terese lives in South Carolina and Heidi lives in Kansas City. So we decided a mini reunion tour was in order on the ski slopes of Breckenridge. There's nothing better than a girls' weekend in the mountains with good friends and lots of laughs!
Boarding the ski bus ... here we go!
On the lift!
Terese had some altitude sickness.
Going from 0 to 10,000 feet in a
short amount of time is tough!

But she was such a trooper
and was determined to ski!

Time for a pic on Peak 8!
Blue skies & good times!
Day 2 began with a little walk around
Breck to view the ice sculptures that
were created the previous weekend
in a competition. Amazing!!
Fun in Brrrrrreckenridge!
For Christmas, Terese gave us these fun
K-State PowerCat hats.

Day 2 was a little cloudy & windy
with icy skiing conditions, but we made
the most of our day on the slopes!

In the last few years, skis have taken
a cue from snowboards and have gotten
very artistic. Check out these adorable
brightly colored skis! Stylin' on the slopes.

Thank you, wonderful friends, for a fabulous weekend!
Your friendship means the world to me!
