Every day my husband checks the Whistler website to see if there has been any snow…and guess what…today there was!!!

The first trip Lew and I took after getting married was to West Virginia for me to “give snowboarding a try”. You see, Lew and his friend Matt take a snowbaording trip every year and after we were married it was time for us to decide if the boarding trips were going to be only a guy thing or if I would enjoy it enough to want to go every year.

I did ok, although it holds the record for the hardest thing I have every done (yes, harder than running the half marathon). After two days of boarding I couldn’t walk, sit, stand or lay down without hurting. However, it was totally worth it! Since starting snowboarding I have seen so many beautiful places I never thought I would see.

Our next trip Lake Tahoe!! 2009

Lake Tahoe is my favorite It is absolutely amazing! We spent two weeks in Tahoe in 2009 and I had the best time…it is one place I cannot wait to go back to!

Our second trip in 2009 was our babymoon to Salt Lake City! I was very pregnant and did not snowboard and therefore have no cool pictures but we did have a great time!

This year’s trip to Whistler is going to be amazing and I am so excited! I am especially excited for the all women’s snowboarding camp that is going to be going on the two days we will be there. I believe this mommy is in need of a little refresher course and what better way to do it than snowboarding camp!

How many of you love to board?? Where is your favorite winter vacation spot?
