{almost} wordless wednesday: here comes the sun

by @according2kelly on March 30, 2011

snowmama-park-cityin college i lived on the mountain, snowboarding nearly every day. often times riding 100+ days. as you can imagine, i created some pretty amazing memories – such as meeting & falling in love with my hubby…

but this season on the slopes, will definitely be remembered as one of my favorite years – ever.

sure, i may have only spent 13 days on the mountain, but watching my boys fall in love with the slopes will definitely make this, a season to remember. (not too mention all the amazing powder that park city continuously seemed to make just for me – does it ever stop snowing there?)

(almost) wordless wednesday: shaun white

shaun white

shaun white autographs park city mountain resort season passwe spent the weekend at park city mountain resort, hanging with shaun white. ok, maybe “hanging” is a bit of an exaggeration… but he did go out of his way to meet us, even if it was just for a brief half-hour or so, to talk “shop,” take a few pictures & sign some autographs. i did stand for an extended period of time with my arm around his back, resisting the urge to reach out & stroke his truly beautiful red hair. & i can pretty much guarantee that i’m a much better snowboarder, just by standing next to him – it’s like i have his awesome-ness now pulsing through my veins.

(almost) wordless wednesday: hawaiian holiday

by @according2kelly on January 5, 2011

ted’s chocolate haupia cream pie, tall frothy drinks complete with little umbrellas, garlic butter shrimp from macky’s shrimp truck, curried chicken salad, & the kahuku grill’s famous coconut chocolate chip banana bread sundae…  yep! i spent the holidays eating my way through the north shore. when i wasn’t busy stuffing my face with all things macadamia (who doesn’t love chocolate covered macadamia nuts? & you haven’t lived until you’ve tasted chocolate dipped macadamia nut shortbread cookies), we we’re  living a paradiscal dream, spending countless hours at both the beach & the pool. charlie enjoyed herself so much, i think she’s going through sand withdrawls right now. & with over 30 people in our “party” the boys are wondering where all their playmates went.

(almost) wordless wednesday: heaven is a place on earth

by @according2kelly on December 8, 2010

park city is heaven on earthno question about it – park city, utah absolutely IS heaven on earth… at least in my opinion. as i rode the lift this weekend, i couldn’t help but sing to myself “i see skies of blue & clouds of white. bright blessed days, dark sacred nights. & i think to myself… what a wonderful world.”

(almost) wordless wednesday: mirror mirror on the wall

by @according2kelly on December 1, 2010

iphone_self_portraitcharlie has recently discovered the “mirror” function on my iphone & is in love… with herself. & i have a gallery of self-portraits à la charlie to prove it.

as i watch her play “mirror mirror on the wall” i can’t help but sing “i feel pretty, oh so pretty. i feel pretty and witty and gay. & i pity, any girl who isn’t me today.”

christmas-quilt

it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas
ev’rywhere you go
take a look in the five-and-ten,
glistening once again
with candy canes silver lanes aglow

it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas
toys in ev’ry store
but the prettiest sight to see
is the holly that will be
on your own front door

a pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
is the wish of barney and ben
dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
is the hope of janice and jen
and mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again

it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas
ev’rywhere you go
there’s a tree in the grand hotel,
one in the park as well
the sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow

it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas
soon the bells will start
and the thing that will make them ring
is the carol that you sing
right within your heart a
