I’m Dreaming of…

December 21, 2010

Last night we went up to the Sundance Ski Resort for dinner.  It was terribly romantic.  We sat at a small table in front of a cozy fireplace, tucked in next to the window where we looked out on the most beautiful snow.  It rained at home most of the day yesterday, but up in the mountains the snow was piling up. And by the time we got home the snow had made it to the valley, and everything was dusted with beautiful white.

I went to bed happy and content.  And when I woke up this morning we had at least six inches of beautiful new snow, and it was still coming down.  It has been one of the most wonderful days ever, and only going to get better.  Scott is home from work early and as soon as Creamie wakes up from her nap we are going back outside to throw snowballs and go sledding. Now, if only it will stay cold enough the next few days so that we can have a white Christmas.

    How amazing! I’m sitting here in Texas in a tank top with the A.C. cranking. Yesterday, the ice cream truck actually drove through the neighborhood! I would love for my children to wake up to a white Christmas. Sadly, the closest thing we got to a white Christmas is the White Trash Christmas Party we went to this past Saturday. 🙂

    I suppose you have quite a few Texas followers. I was just on my way home from Hobby Lobby for the famous “last” trip and heard that it was 82*. Yuck! A snow ball sound absolutely delightful.

    Over here in Australia, the washing is blowing in the breeze and even though its not hot (very unseasonal) the sun is shining and the lawn will be mowed.
    Your day sounds wonderful.

    I love your love of snow! Seriously!

    Did you eat at the Tree Room? The best meals I’ve ever eaten were there. Love that place! And the ambiance.

    I tend to be one of those only on Christmas lover of snow. But as the valley continues to get rain which is melting any trace evidence of the white stuff it makes me a little sad. I wish the big storm this morning was dumping snow so I could truly have a White Christmas. (cue Bing singing the wonderful tune)

    As my kids made the trek home from Rexburg through the ice and snow…I am so grateful for their safe arrival. I love your beautiful picture and here in California I am loving the rain. Merry Christmas and thanks so much for sharing so many wonderful ideas with us all.

    I wish we were having a white Christmas! It’s just going to be a soggy brown one this year unfortunately!
