Seattle/Canada.

Every year for spring break my family comes up to Park City to go skiing, but with the little snow and warm weather we decided to mix it up a little and head out to Whistler, Canada!

Whistler has always been a top place I've wanted to visit, so I was thrilled when I heard we were going.

We flew into Seattle and stayed there for 2 days, then drove up into Canada for a full week of playing in the snow and skiing. 

The whole trip was such a dream and very relaxing! 

There is really no way to describe how beautiful it is, but here are a few pictures to give you a taste.

Travel bug.

I've been on a traveling kick lately, and currently in Canada for some spring skiing!

I have never skiied in a more beautiful place and the snow is seriously magical.

Once I get back to the states I'll be sure to share some photos of where I've been the past few weeks.

I hope everyone is enjoying their week!

The Bluebird.

Last weekend my mom and I headed out to Logan for a family funeral.
It started to snow like crazy the day of the funeral (of course), but I have to admit the graveyard
was just beautiful with all the trees covered in snow.
Although the funeral was bittersweet, it was fun to catch up with extended family that I haven't seen in YEARS.

After the funeral we ate at The Bluebird, which is a little old cafe and coke shop where my grandpa and his brothers would always go as kids.
I could not get over thecute old fashion candies and the vintage look of the cafe.
I unfortunately couldn't eat the good comfort food it offered or buy anything from the candy bar,
but at least I know where to go next time I'm in Logan! ;)

I hope everyone is enjoying their week!

Hooray for 2012!

I can't believe the New Year is already here!

As I look back on 2011, it amazes me how many memories I have and all that I experienced.

 There were times of laughter, stress, joy, uncertainty, anticipation...

and although it was probably one of my most challenging years, I am grateful for it.

One of my favorite things to do is write down my new year resolutions so at the end of the year I can look back and see all that I have accomplished. I usually make two lists: one that is simple and fun, and another that is more personal and specific of what I hope to accomplish that year.
This year will be interesting with all the changes that will occur, but I couldn't be more excited.

Cheers for new beginning, a fresh start, and a chance to become better!

2012 is going to be grand... I know it. 

Bring on the SNOW.

Today was the first day of skiing this season!

While everyone went shopping for Black Friday, my dad, brother and I decided to go down the slopes.

There were no lines, and although it was a little chilly and snowy it was perfect!

Nothing like welcoming winter with a little skiing at Park City.

Hope everyone is staying warm!
