snow pretty...

sorry for slacking. i don't know what happened to february! there were some warm days with sunset walks on the beach...

afternoon lunches on the deck (chewie is very tolerant of belle)...









then Jenna and Kimmy came to visit...

 we made Kimmy go for a hike. she was less than thrilled.

and of coarse no girls weekend is complete without a trip to the winery!

 after a few tastings Jenna and i entered into some intense board games.

 i won.

after Kimmy left Jenna and I snowboarded 6 days straight. still no new snow at this point, so the conditions we just ok. we made the best of it. at least it was warm! we ditched the helmets for fear of overheating and experimented with a little gondola yoga :)

 and ended jennas visit with a little gambling on the mechanical ponies. she won!

next up: Gary's visit

 i made some flare for gary's ski pole (www.poleflare.com coming soon)

and finally we enter march with a crap ton of snow. i believe the totals were somewhere around 4 feet

 just lovin it!

 can i please go swimming??
