Snow!

We flew to Denver on the 29th and drove to Breckenridge and did the necessary things- picked up skis, went to the house, etc. That night, we went over to Keystone, which is another ski resort nearby, for dinner  and then went to bed fairly early so we could hit the slopes bright and early!
We were staying at a ski in, ski out, so we woke up the next morning and were off! We skied all day, went to a local pub for a bit, came back for dinner and the hot tub, and then called it an early night (you can't ever stay up too late on ski trips because you are so worn out!) Our plan the next day was to do Vail- Robbie, Richie, and Laura were going to ski and I was going to shop with the folks in Vail Village because I was dying to see it.
However, we awoke to no power, winds up to 100 mph, and a snow storm! The girls (what wimpy boys we have!) geared up and walked to town to get coffee and find out what the deal was. By the time we got back, the power was back on and they decided to go ski Keystone(which was the only ski resort that was running their lifts), but we were still going to explore Vail. That is, until we got down the road to a wreck and the officer told us there was a 5 car pile up, that 70 was on "high accident alert" and that "if we didn't absolutely have to be out- not to be". So instead, I curled by the fire all day, drank hot cocoa, read, and watched the snow fall through the trees.  Pretty gorgeous.  Even though I pretty much sat inside most of the day on one of the day of my vacation, I absolutely loved it.  We rarely get snow in Georgia, and if we do, it certainly doesn't come with a view like I had there.

I am thankful for the beautiful snow and for a chance to just sit back and enjoy it!
