Colorado Mountain Christmas

Eric and I spent Christmas in 
Frisco Colorado this year.  He was
able to ski several days and I 
was able to relax a bit.

So, I'll get to the pictures from our
trip, but first......
My sweet nephew and niece with Santa!


(For some reason, my pictures
are not in chronological order... but
here they are.)

We flew to Denver and spent a night
in Greeley before heading up to the mountains.
Ronda and I did some baking!


Ronda and I had a blast
tubing on the Frisco sledding hill
while the boys were skiing.  They had
Christmas music playing on the loud speakers
and the view was beautiful.  We started
out in beautiful blue sky weather and watched
the snow clouds roll in...

While the boys were skiing, we went tubing!




Love this sweet family

On our way to Frisco,
we stopped for lunch at Bojo's Pizza.
It was delicious.


Ronda and I went shopping
in Vail.  It was a pretty area.

Shopping in Vail, Colorado

Eric and Brian got to bottle
whiskey at the Breckenridge Distillery.
They had a lot of fun and said it was
a neat experience.



I got to spend time with my friend
Veronica - she has been a close friend
since middle school.  She and her husband
live in the Brighton area of Colorado,
so they drove up to Frisco and had dinner
with us one evening.  It was lovely to see her.


Ronda and I ate at the Butterhorn Bakery,
which was delicious.  Take a look at that cinnamon roll!



Ronda and I worked on a puzzle all week.
It was so fun and very relaxing.  Probably
one of the more difficult puzzles I've ever put
together though, because the pieces were oddly shaped.


And finally, my favorite picture from the week,
Eric and his dad on the mountain.  It was so cold
that Eric had ice in his beard.  Brrrr.
