Playing with snow at Snowbird Resort in Utah
This week instead of picking just one of my posts to recycle *cough* highlight, I’ve chosen all my favorite ones that have to do with winter sports! I am participating in a Blog Carnival over at Mother Of All Trips for #BackToSki week and am very excited. I love the fresh crisp in the Fall air that reminds me soon those mountains outside my window will be covered with glorious snow!
So here are a few of my favorites:
