A Weekend Escape…


GRAB A FRIEND, TWO MUGS, BOIL SOME WATER. TODAY I'M ENJOYING A SPICED CHAI.

This weekend was a weekend for a ski vacation... My family and our oldest family friends decided to meet up at Mission Ridge for a little ski trip.  I think we were all in need of an escape- my family suffers from a little problem I like to call the Februaries.  Christmas is now far in the past, but spring still seems a million miles away, and of course school, work, and life always seems to hit hard this time of year.  Yes this was a weekend we all desperately needed. 

So after Friday classes I turned off my phone, left the computer at home, and drove with the girls to meet our parents at the mountain.  It was a weekend of fantastic food, awesome skiing, and fireplace conversation… maybe a few wrong turns in the car- but it’s ALL GOOD! Leave it our gang of geese to take over the hotel lobby and use it as our personal living room for the weekend.  If we weren’t skiing, eating, or sleeping, you could find us hanging out by the fire with a cup of wine or coffee.   I laughed till I cried, Did the Electric Slide on skis at the top of the mountain, and I know I was skiing with the gang because I’ve had Crocodile Rock stuck in my head for the better part of the past two days. (Courtesy of the playlist we’ve been playing after skiing for the past 10+ years) I’m so thankful to have such a loving group of people in my life; this was an escape to remember.
