Mountain Christmas

It sure looks a lot like Christmas nestled here on a snowy fairway in the Wasatch mountains of Park City, Utah.  Usually a seeker of sun and tropical climates, Utah is a place so visual, so unique, so filled with family fun that I find myself craving my turn sledding down the world famous powder.  What's even more exciting is watching Ella experience snow for the first time.

Turn the volume up so you don't miss the giggles...

Snow Angels... 

Daddy

Mommy

Ella

Making her first snowman...

 Santa arrives downtown via lighted ski lift sleigh...

One tired snow bunny!

Hot chocolate, smores, and a wood-burning fire...life is good in the mountains!

Monday's forecast:  30% chance of snow.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Treasures

Ella's angel loves to escape to her little slice of heaven in the majestic mountains of Durango.  She and Ella share the same birthday month--separated by one day.  On her recent birthday get-a-way, she brought our sweet Ella back a treasure box of pine cones and rocks found while exploring the grounds of her CO mountain retreat.

Yesterday we decorated her pine cones with pom poms.

  

I see rock polishing in our future.  Can't wait to see them sparkle.

Thanks Mrs. Fae for being one of Ella's favorite treasures.  

You ROCK!
