2013 Cannon-ball!!

Talk about plunging into 2013 cannon-ball style. January has came and gone. February is a shorty anyways, so here we are...

My snowboarding trip with my girls was much needed and such a great time. We tried tubing this time around, and I must say, it is a MUST now everytime we go! I can't imagine my life without these girlies.

 
The Hubby and I also enjoyed a day on the slopes recently, AND visited the Biltmore. It was Justin's first time snowboarding, so he was a bit of a bunny sloper for the most part, but that's ok, he's a Hare.
 
 
I must say visiting the Biltmore was a unique experience. I enjoyed the idea of being somewhere that had countless stories, and intrigue. I tried to imagine running around in my pj's, relaxing, in such a lavish mansion/castle hybrid, and it would be nothing short of thrilling, but not at all necessary. Guess that means we're sticking to the KY suburbs. :)
 
Not only did the Biltmore take me to another time in history, but it also reminded me of someone very special that I know had walked those very halls, My Granny.
My Granny was quite the travelor, even in her old age, she was always looking for her next trip.
The Biltmore made my mind wonder what she thought of such grandeur, and how special I felt to be in the same place that she had visited.
 I can only hope I get to achieve such an itinerary of future travels.
Hope Valentine's Day was happy for everyone. Love is cool.
