Road Trip

Well, boys and girls, my husband is taking me on a holiday tomorrow morning. We are going to be in Banff (yay!) until next Sunday - staying at a beautiful resort...Just the two of us for eight days.

I'm not a great skier (After 2 seasons of lessons, I actually suck), but maybe he'll talk me into one day on the slopes, but mostly it'll be shopping, eating way too much, and just having an insane amount of fun.

He's taking me to Pier 1 tomorrow to pick out my NEW DISHES!!!!!!!!! He got me a gift certificate for Christmas from there & it's been burning a hole in my wallet. As well, I'm going to stop at a store called "Gravity Pope" to get a new pair of Uggs - Amy rolled her eyes when I told her that I can't go to Banff for a week without them.

So, I'll have my laptop with me, and I'll try to keep up with everyone's lives. Have a wonderful week! I'll take lots of pictures! Peace!

DARLENE!!
It's Banff time already??
Have a wonderful time. Enjoy the peace. Well, peace from normal stuff anyway. Hope you get to go skiing.
New dishes? Already? That was quicker than normal, wasn't it? Are you getting the dark brown Uggs? Those are so nice.
Again, Darlene & Mister Z, have an awesome time.
Love you.

kare: quicker than normal?? I've had these dishes for almost 2 1/2 years! It's time to retire them, don't you think? Didn't you shotgun these?

I'm not sure what color yet - I have a few on hold to try on...Apparently their the hot item & thankfully I've got sasquatch feet - the lady said that I can pretty much have my pick because only larger sizes are left. I'm gonna leave your number with Adam if that's okay. Love you!

Oh you lucky gal, you! Have a wonderful time shushing down the bunny slope and strutting around in your new uggs. I'm pea green with envy!

Awesome awesome, about everything, Banff, dishes and Uggs. Amanda got new dishes from Pier 1 for Christmas. Wish I was so lucky. Just kidding. You two are gonna have a great week. How nice to get away. Have something slushy with lots of flavor in it. (Flavor) is the good stuff.

Have a wonderful, wonderful time!

I'm a huge Uggs fan. I've got real ones, knock-offs, in just about every style. They are just so comfy. Go get your Uggs girl.

Enjoy yourself in Banff. It's a beautiful area and the skiing will be fun regardless of your talent level.

A trip and new dishes. Did Santa have something to do with this?

I hope you are having fun.
