Ski in Peace

A little bit of helium.

Caring hands.

 

 

Golden balloons.

The cranes can fly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Sarah.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The U.S. Ski & Snowboarding loves Sarah.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Joy when we think of her.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Talk to you later Sarah.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bye.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bye for now.

And I wanted to share them with you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We loved posing for our future album cover.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If there was music, we were dancing. I could always count on finding Sarah on the dance floor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She got married first.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She showed me what it really meant to be a role model. http://www.womenssportsfoundation.org

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So much stays the same.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The dream team = WSF Team

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She taught me so much. Even how to pose.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The best Summer X, ever! I recall her and I dancing on stage with Three6Mafia just because we could.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never a dull moment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My SBF (Ski Best Friend)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My battle buddy : )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My life saver.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Teaching audiences about the GoGirlGo! Program.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No matter what, we were always having fun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And making sure we were both alright.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No matter what, we always tried to do what was right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We shared a love for cupcakes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sometimes I would win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sometimes she would win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But that stuff never really mattered. We just liked being up there together.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As long as we were having fun. That’s all we cared about.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We did a lot together.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We complimented each other.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She was the perfect friend.

I will miss you forever Sarah.

SURPRISE!!! It was a Pow Day! Here is a shot of me on the chair just soaking it all up!

I got this photo from Sarah and Afghan Dan later on in the day. They were doing the same thing, but in Breckenridge. I do not know if you remember this, but years ago when Danny and I were on a Goodwill trip to Afghanistan he saved my life. So forever to me, he is known as Afghan Dan.
