winter wonderland

one of the benefits of moving back to salt lake is the opportunity to experience the 4 seasons. growing up, i never really had that. there were maybe 2 seasons at best: summer and winter (60 degree days).

i have always been more of a summer girl, but this last winter was really good to me. utah is known for the best snow on earth. i mean, it even says so on the license plates. and this winter, i learned why. i was fortunate enough to spend a lot of time at snowbird and a few days at brighton as well. below are a few pictures of the wonderful time i had.



there is something really amazing about standing at the top of a mountain and just taking in the view. or riding down the mountain with the "swoosh swoosh" sound of fresh powder beneath you. it's times like that, i can really appreciate the world i live in and see the hand of God and what He has made all around me. i am so grateful to live in this world and for the beauty that is all around me. i really am so lucky and i am thankful everyday.


as great a time as i had playing in the snow this season, i look forward to spring and summer and the many great times i know they hold.
