In just 15 days, it is Valentine’s Day! Are you excited?
Admittedly, I am not… I’m really, truly not into Valentine’s Day. And I mean it for reals, not like a girl who says that and then gets upset if she doesn’t get something sparkly. It’s probably in large part due to my intense dislike with coming up with gift ideas. I don’t know why but gift giving totally stresses me out. So the idea of having yet another day after birthdays and holidays to come up with another present, no thanks.
It is January, right? I ask because man, it was beautiful out all weekend. The sun was shining, it wasn’t too cold, completely wonderful for a late-January day in Oregon. Brice and I even postponed our annual winter “trip to the sun” because it was so nice here that we didn’t feel we’d need our little escape to Phoenix.
But despite the gorgeous weather, I was completely lazy all day Sunday – slept in, made brunch, took a nap, watched a movie. Perhaps it was just catch up after last weekend’s awesome but busy trip to Park City, or perhaps it was just a chocolate-coma from the Theo Chocolate for Congo Benefit at Little Bird on Saturday.
I just returned from an amazing long weekend in Park City, Utah. I love skiing. I was one of those kids who was put on skis basically once I could walk. A few of my mountain buddies and I had kept talking about how fun a ski vacation would be, especially since one of the girls is from Park City, home to some really awesome ski resorts.
After years of talking about it, Lauren, Molly, Kenzie and I finally made it happen!
Yup, I was that person who took a picture of the PDX Airport carpet.
There wasn’t tons of snow – we had to maneuver our way around rocks and little trees instead of flying through the Utah powder – but it was a great trip nonetheless.
