Let it Snow

This weekend we got an insane amount of snow at our house...much more than several of our friends that only live a few miles away. It just kept coming down. As much of a pain it is for Garrett (he is the official shoveler), and as much as Munchie hates it (would you like to try and "do your business" with snow up to your neck), I really love having it. Its very festive and it is actually starting to feel like Christmas time. Saturday Garrett and I went up to Snowbasin for our first ski adventure of the season. The snow wasn't great and there was only a couple runs open, but it was just good to get out again. Now if only we can just get more snow. I think it snowed more at my house than it did at the resorts. Sunday we busted out the snow shoes and snowshoed our selves up to Dog Lake in Big Cottonwood Canyon. It was a lot of work and my legs are definitely feeling the effects. All in all, we had a really nice weekend. Its fun to take advantage of all the cool things you can get out and do here in Salt Lake...sometimes, its easy to lose sight of everything. With just a little thought and not a lot of effort, people in Salt Lake should never be bored, just sitting at home. We have an outdoor mecca right in our backyard, and I'm not going to be the one missing out.
