President's Day

There are few things better than a 3-day weekend, especially when family comes to town.

(minus two - we missed you guys!)

I've been boarding since I was 12ish, but I'm wondering if i should ditch the board for a bit and try out skis again (Dave and I scored some passes to Alta, and it would be a shame not to use them).

Lets be honest, I have no sense of balance and perhaps having two feet strapped to a couple smaller slips of wood would be a better idea.

We'll see what happens...

6 months & skiing

Such a great combination.

Can we do this every monthiversary please?

p.s. We both actually snowboard, but I always say we're "going skiing."  Does anyone else do that too? 

a few days later

happy belated president's day!

long weekends are the best, don't you agree?

I adored waking up on Monday morning and not running off to an 8:00 AM class...

instead I woke up at the same time, bundled up and hopped on a ski lift.

tell me how that works?

and yes, that is our car,

after 3 days of strait snow

it was a glorious 4 days away from real life

my favorite things #1

Well it seems I enjoyed my 7 days of love so much I've decided to start a trend.

A few of  

my favorite things 

Fridays:

today is dedicated to

long weekends

Mine will be spent here with the family:

Bundling up,
boarding all day Saturday and Monday,
building snowmen,
eating chili bread bowls and Milky Ways in the lodge,
playing Dominoes after dinner at the condo,
being really, really sore

and hopefully coming back in one piece...

Have a lovely extra long weekend all!
See you on the other side!
