7988 Feet

Up in the sky.


Just a few minutes away from home.

After we were done playing at the ski resort, we stopped a couple of times to admire our world.


And to love it just a bit more.
An' it was enough.
For today.

  4. I love these pictures! How wonderful it must be to live SO close to much beauty! Your kids are so fortunate, I keep telling my husband that once the kids are old enough to snowboard- we'll be gone on good powder days :)

  5. What open joy on that little sweetie's face as she zips down the hill! What fun! Where in the world ARE you? My in-laws are in Colorado, which almost makes it worth having them (hee hee). But you're pictures are SO much nicer than any wintertime pictures from Chicago can be (esp. this winter).

    Looks like a blast!

    Not boasting, but really - people from all over the world agree.

  8. Sigh. Lovely! My sons keep asking if we can move somewhere with mountains that they can ski/snowboard and isn't so cold like here ... where they can still go outside every single day of the year (we are wayyyyyyy below zero this week). My husband said sure, as long as there is also a bobsled track.

    Ahem. ;P
