Winter Vacation

Last weekend Chris and I went up to the NC mountains for a little vacation.  He took Thursday and Friday off work and we spent 3 days relaxing together.  On Friday, we went skiing for the first time.  We took lessons first, then hit the slopes for the rest of the day.  We had a lot of fun and didn't fall near as much as I had expected.  I wish I would have taken some pictures, but I was afraid we would fall on the camera if we carried it with us!  We made dinner Friday night and relaxed most of the day Saturday.  Saturday night, we went into Blowing Rock and ate some amazing pizza at Mellow Mushroom then walked to Kilwins for some fudge and icecream.  Before heading back to the condo, we drove around Chetola to see their display of Christmas lights.

Late Saturday night snow began to fall and we woke up to a winder wonderland on Sunday morning.  We took Miley for a walk in the snow and she loved it.  We wanted to take her off her leash, but we didn't want her running away or running out in front of a car.  Hope you enjoy the pictures!
