The Holidays: Part Two

You know your holidays were awesome when on February 3 you are still attempting to adequately blog about them.

Alas...

Onward!

Part two of our holidays, much like part one, was full of amazing people (pictured above.) And I must say, the activities were pretty stellar too.

The men, in all their glory, hiked into the cabin. And despite hiking out (as well as other activities such as ice-fishing) in a big winter storm they insist it was an awesome and fun experience. Honestly, by the smiles on their faces I almost believe them.




To belatedly celebrate LeAnn's birthday we had a fantastic cooking class at Gygi's (Thanks Con!).


From beginning to end food was a big part of our holiday fun. Ty's bacon explosion (a bacon weave filled with sausage, ground beef and more bacon) was a dream come true for C who has wanted to make one for a while....and I must say....was super delicious.



To ring in the New Year and celebrate Ty's birthday we celebrated with SO MUCH good food....and a whole lot of Janitor awesome-ness in honor of Ty's upcoming book publication.


There were many cute kids and we even got to celebrate Kira's 5th birthday.


Every year I'm a little antsy about skiing. (What if the weather is terrible? Ugh....you have to get up SO early. I only go once a year, what if I'm a mess on the hill?) And then, without fail, every year I LOVE it and wish we could go back the very next day.




And thus the Utah portion of our holidays came to a close. Loved it.
