Winter Wonderland


Don't we live in a great state? When my sister and her family were here recently visiting from Milan, Italy, we took time out to do some really fun things around Utah. I think that I saw a bit of the State through her eyes and realized how lucky we are to live somewhere where there are outdoor things to do all year long... Skiing, snowshoeing, playing in the snow, and in summer: boating, hiking, biking etc. It was so fun to have my niece watch the boys while the grown ups got to enjoy some outdoor activity. The highlight of their trip, had to be when Pax took us to Port O Call for New Years Eve - Gavin was in his element listening to a live band and just enjoying some nighlife. The owners treated us so well - maybe because Pax is their attorney, but they did go above and beyond. We felt like real VIPs. Vance and his cousin, Carl were inseperable every day - of course Sam and I were refereeing a lot because they are both strong willed boys. I had such a good time enjoying our area, and finally being able to spend time with my family over here. Too bad that the trip went by so quickly - next we are heading to Milan Italy to their neck of the woods.....
