What a time we had in Crested Butte!
As i sit here this morning... i find myself shaking my head...
in awe...
this was the GOOD STUFF...
sorta like a cream filled donut...
sure it was GREAT to be in a beautiful mountain home... oh how it was...
but the STUFF in the middle...
the FRIENDS... the LAUGHS... the TIME...
made it taste SO great!
out of the vehicles... straight to the snow
up up up and away...
wheeeeee
all geared up & ready to hit the slopes...
this would be us... the gals
taking a bit of a rest... after a tough day in ski school
brown eyed blessing
big sis after her day in ski school...
shopping anyone...
giggly little girlies
bench of blades
all the girls made a really neat ice castle
we played lots of cards
watch me mommy... watch my mommy
did you see ME?
oh yeah... i skied a bunch mommy... all by MYSELF
i just love this pic of queenie and her braids
yippee... time to loosen those bindings
smore kits from the outdoor bar
getting her marshmallow all nice & toasty
perfect... mmmmm
i better warm my toes while hubby fetches my boots
the guys...
the snow was like fluffy cotton candy
ready... set... go...
whooooooa
right before we got going too fast and went right of the edge... a BIG drop off
do we have to go?
The last morning of our trip had arrived... yuck...
i wanted to throw myself around their ankles... and throw a good old fashion FIT...
screaming at all... make them stay... stretch out the fun as long as i could!
Like Campbell said on the way to school this morning...
"that was such a fun trip"...
"sure wish we didn't have to go on a trip just to see them"...
"i miss them"!
I wish that too!
Thanks Floyds for such a "GOOD STUFF" time!
Now... i've got tweaks all around to tend to...
tweaks to the shop... the blog... the house... oh my!
orders to send...
bags to unpack...
laundry to tackle...
treats to create!
And it's FRIDAY... don't ya just love that!
Here's to a fancy one... the FANCY FREE kind... :)!

Hey Carissa, Glad you're back. We've missed you here in blogworld. I have a big blog question for you. I've recently gotten a blog makeover and my graphic gal lyndsay 'stretched' my posting section similiar to yours. I now however have to resize every photo in photobucket.....do you do this too? Any tips 'cause I'm having a big of trouble. Does it just get easier with time?
Anyhoo, glad you're back.
Oh how fun! I'm so jealous... I wanna go!!!!! Good for you guys! Glad you had a GREAT time!
Smiles,
Jen

Looks like you had a great time! I love her scarf in that bottom picture--did you make that or buy it?

Gosh that looks like such fun! I'm inspired cause I didn't know us Texas gals could have so much fun in the snow!!! Maybe one day I will try it! Sorry you had to leave!
hey there lanny... you know i didn't make those smore kits... we got them at the outdoor bar there... nice & convenient! but how fun & super easy... would make a neat idea for a party. everything was there... a long dowel, marshmallows, hershey's bar, graham crackers! it was so perfect for the kids... oh and of course the part i ate! :)
katie...
oh yes... skied since were kiddos... as i've gotten older i have become more of a chicken... i think cause we know what CAN happen... and now it is SO hard to see MY kiddos now going too darn fast!
