Last year we went skiing and were here for New Years. We were cooking dinner(chili) and getting ready for our drive home the next morning. Before we sat down to eat, Scott popped the question! We drank at least two bottles of champagne and ate our chili dinner. We told ourselves that we should make it a tradition to eat chili and drink champagne on New Years day from now on. SO we are sticking to our word, and cooking chili tonight and drinking champagne. I love this tradition, as weird as it sounds!
We are still in Angel Fire, skiing our little butts off. Yesterday it was 19 degrees and it snowed all day long. This Texas girl can't really hang in those conditions. I made 3 runs and called it a day.
Today I'm taking it easy, while Scott hits the slopes. We got to sleep in a little bit, ate cinnamon rolls, and now I'm just catching up with the online world. Later, we might go tubing, and sneak into the resort for some hot tub action!
2012 has been such a wonderful year, I wanted to recap some fun things that have happened.

2013 came faster than we could have imagined but I couldn't be more excited to become a wife this year. Also, I'm not one to make new years resolutions, but I do plan on continuing to live simply and try to live in the moment more. This is going to be a great year!
Happy New Year!
