Ski Bunnies {Park City, Utah}

We were invited by one of Jonathan's electrical distributors to go snow skiing in Park City, Utah. We hadn't been before and were super excited to give it a try! 
The first day we got there we had a snow mobile adventure scheduled for the afternoon. It was so much fun! 
I was in awe of the beauty of this part of the country.  I am always amazed at His grand creation. 
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands." Psalm 19:1
From this lookout, you can see Wyoming in the distance, a mere 65 miles away. 
I had the best snow mobile driver! 

We enjoyed supper at the Seafood buffet at Deer Valley Resort. I ate way too much shrimp! Yum!
Ski school on Sunday morning. 
Post ski school lunch at Legends. 
Not pictured: Myself and another one of the wives at the condo for the afternoon. Skiing proved to be much more difficult than I had ever imagined. I fell twice that morning, which is common for newbies. But I just wasn't sure this was for me! I was a bit discouraged and scared of the speed, falling, and injuring myself, so we decided to go clean up and maybe shop the afternoon. 
The hubs stayed and got GOOD! :) We walked down to Main St. before dinner and had a lot of fun shopping. Great shops and atmosphere! I fell in love with Dolly's Bookstore and Olive & Tweed boutique! Dinner at PRIME Steakhouse was amazing!
Second ski day: Mama did good, too! I guess I needed an afternoon off to let all that ski school knowledge soak in. Ha! I figured out how to stop well, turn, and slowly glide myself down the mountain. I never tried to go fast. Slow and steady was my race! Pizza, pizza, pizza those skis down the mountain! 
I skied all day. I think I took 15 runs down the mountain and only fell once! 
Most of all, I enjoyed some quality-no kids time with Jonathan. You gotta do that ever so often!
Our final dinner was at J&G Grill at St. Regis. You took a funicular (cable railway) up the side of the mountain to the restaurant. Our meal was amazing, but this view was so cool!
I am thankful we were able to have this long weekend together. Jonathan really took to skiing and is already talking about going back with (and without) the boys! Lol
