A ::rocky mountain:: spring break review

Denver


My spring break adventures included:
holding best friend's sweet baby for the first time.

Skiing at Copper Mountain with good friends and a toast in the trees to my daddy {that's his favorite scotch in a squirt bottle~ cute, huh?!}. *A tip for skiers~ toasts and glasses of wine at lunch don't mix well with black diamonds {note: I was the one taking the photo, not napping on the moguls, ha!}
Calgary, Alberta


Road~trip to Banff
Banff Springs
Banff Springs Hotel
Cocktails in Banff Springs hotel lounge.
Edmonton, Alberta


Ice skating at the West Edmonton mall.

High jumping craziness at West Ed mall.


Making snowmen with Edmonton ice snow.
Our adventures ended with not one, but TWO birthday cakes for a certain little six year old.

  5. Those mountains are just beautiful! I'm thinking I must travel out west next year, as I've never been to that part of the country. The last time I attempted to ski down a black diamond slope I ended up needing knee surgery! You must be a much better skier than I am! I love reading about your adventures!

  10. Looks and sounds like you had a lot of fun. Aren't the mountains gorgeous? I have been through that area many times and I can never get enough of the scenery! I am impressed that you went all the way up to Edmonton even. Canada is such a lovely country, it is so nice to see someone outside of here posting about it. Glad you enjoyed it so much. And Happy Birthday to your sweet little girl. She is a cutie! Hugs, Cindy S

  11. Oh your daughter is so beautiful!
    It looks like you had an amazing time!! I haven't been able to get up to the mountains this season yet...5 month old baby that feeds every 2 hours being the main reason :) But I miss it!! It's so quiet up on the hill...and the air is so fresh!
