The thought of Christmas time

This Christmas I will be in Colorado with my family. This is the first Christmas I am spending away from Frankfort, and I have never been more excited! This is the ideal way to spend my Christmas away from home...with wonderful family that I do not get to see that often, in the mountains that literally take my breath away every time I set my eyes on them, big fluffy snow flakes falling peacefully, and ski resorts that are bustling with families just as excited as my own.

This is a picture I took when skiing at A-Basin last April. I can only imagine what it will look like in December!

Just thinking of Christmas time this year makes me so thankful for my wonderful family, and all the blessings we've had in our life. I would love to live in Colorado one day, but until then, I'll enjoy my first Christmas in the mountains. Early morning rise, full day of fresh powder skiing, warm cozy cottage at night, fireplace and hot cocoa...all while enjoying the company of my parents, brother, aunts, uncle, cousins...Life simply could not ever get better.

20 days away!!
