A White Christmas

Christmas was a little different this year, but Mom did a great job shipping food, decorations, and stockings out to Colorado before the trip to keep a little tradition alive. We still had our tomato dill soup (which Brandon somehow got through security at the airport) and ham on Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day was made complete with beef tenderloin, green beans, and Sister Schubert rolls. Brandon and I got a Canon S90 to replace our broken point and shoot, Sarah got a purse, Catherine got a bunch of stuff including DVD's such as Arrested Development and The Hangover, and Blake got some Southern Mississippi tumblers. Mom and Dad are in the midst of getting a complete master bathroom remodel . . . including a massive jacuzzi tub, heated tile floors, built-in towel warmer, and a huge shower with multiple shower heads and jets.

Greetings from Beaver Creek, CO

We are in Colorado for Christmas this year! We are having a wonderful time with the whole family. There was fresh snow the night before last for our first day of skiing yesterday, and some more snow last night. Yesterday was great . . . temperature around 30 degrees (but very overcast skies as it was still snowing). This morning was a little colder, 0 degrees on the top of the mountain, but beautiful blue skies. The day was topped off by Sarah's visit to the ER at the base of Beaver Creek for acute mountain sickness (she is doing much better now). Here are a few pictures from the last two days.
Merry Christmas and more posts to come!
