Looked Good On Paper

About 10 days or so ago we went back to Utah for the 4th time this year.  And I’m going back again next week. But that one doesn’t count for 2009 and it’s only for 24 hrs. I’ll tell you about it when I come back.

Anyway, this latest trip was our 1st annual skiing trip. We made reservations at a hotel right next to the Powder Mountain lodge. But. There wasn’t any snow!! Hello middle of December! Remember? It snows right about this time. Got the memo too late.

We found snow in another resort, Snowbasin. We went with Ben’s brother Jake and we had a great time. I was the sissy one and stayed on the bunny hill the whole time. I did better than the last time we went, I felt a little more confident, especially after not falling once out of the lift.

The part I was looking forward the most was sitting in the lodge, hot cocoa, the fireplace right next to me and the latest Nicholas Sparks book. Aaaahhh! Heaven. Dallas stayed with some of his cousins that day. We’ll take him skiing next year.

We ate at most of our favorite places, we visited a lot of friends and family, we had a great time.

Dallas had a blast with his cousins, loved playing in the snow and looked so freaking cute wearing that hat!!

We came back and had an awesome Christmas, this is the first year that Dallas was old enough to start grasping the concept of Christmas, although we’re not sure we’ll tell him about Santa, we just might flat out tell him that people tell their kids about him just for fun, we haven’t decided yet.

How was yours? Did you eat yummy things? Got great presents? Saw the wonderful people in your life?

Happy 2010!!!
