Ok, so I had some trouble figuring out what to title this post! It is true, Mike and I do enjoy playing up in the mountains. For Martin Luther King Weekend we went on an annual trip with Mike's buddies to Breckenridge. This year Mike started a festive tournament to get the night started. We all put our names in a cup, so we could mix up teams, and then played a beer pong tournament, with brackets and everything. The games started at 8 and didn't end unSunday, January 27, 2008
Up in the Mountains we Play

A little place called Aspen
This past weekend Mike and I made our way up to Aspen. Mike's lifelong friend Anna lives up there. It is a great way for me to hear stories about Mike from when he was growing up. Spending time with Anna is always a good time with a lot of laughs, and great skiing never hurts either.The festivities....
On Friday when we left it looked like we were heading straight into a storm. Once we got to Anna's we picked her up and headed into Basalt for a drink. Later that night, Anna's boyfriend joined us for a home cooked dinner and late night darts and video golf!
Saturday night we went to the Double Dog to meet up with some of Anna and Dale's friends before they headed to a concert. Mike and I decided to take that opportunity to grab dinner together. We first tried to go to a seafood restaurant that was closed when we were there in October. We quickly learned our place when our table was given to a "fur wearing family" right before our eyes! We then went to a great restaurant, D19, that had both wonderful food and a great atmosphere.

Ahh the skiing....
Saturday we skied Snowmass and Sunday we skied The Highlands. I have always heard about how great the skiing in Aspen is and it truly lived up to my expectations. There was hardly a wait for the lift and the runs felt like Mike, Anna, and I were the only ones on the run!
Anna and I expressed it with a little "whahoooo" ever time we got off the lift...Mike even joined in once or twice! Aspen was a great time and I think it even made us consider what kind of life we could have in the mountains of Colorado.

So far a crazy beginning
So far January has been eventful to say the least. We started it off in December when my brother came to stay with us. He ended up getting sick and we only got one day of s
