Park City




This last weekend we took a quick weekend trip to Park City, Utah.  It was for a business retreat for Carlos' work and the spouses were invited.  We stayed at the gorgeous St. Regis in Deer Valley (right next to Park City) on top of a mountain.

I had not skied in nine years (right before I got pregnant with Landon) and I was impressed that I remembered how!  I do have to say that the ski valet service and ski in/ski out ability at the St. Regis makes it quite easy to ease myself back into it.  It also didn't hurt that they had a ice castle bar that you could order champagne, wine or cocktails from that you could ski right up to.  

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend and happy travels!  

Cheers,

ALT Summit Eve Dinner - Cocktails, Crafts & Cooking

Dayna, myself and Amy on a wild car ride back to the hotel.
Hello....you had me at cocktail! 

If it gives you any idea to how crazy things have been since I got back from ALT (and when I mean crazy - I mean my spinning out of control and my lack of focus), I started writing this post a week ago! 

One of my favorite moments at ALT definitely was the first evening at the interactive dinner with Kelly Wilkinson and Sarah Flotard.  I met a lot of fabulous ladies, decorated some fun dinner napkins, pickled some scallions and ate some really delicious food. They sent us home with our pickled scallions (that I know have a mild obsession with ...like seriously...what else can I put these on - never was a big pickled fan before - Carlos now thinks I have a problem.  Did you know that you can put them on homemade pizza, carnitas, roast beef sandwiches and on a hot dog...oh yeah...you can*), our napkin, a book of recipes from the evenings delicacies and a copy of Kelly's book, Weekend Handmade (which I can't wait to dig into)! Thank you to our lovely hosts for such a wonderful evening and the perfect way to kick off ALT!

*Forgive the four sentences that ended up being dedicated to pickled scallions!
**The most shameful thing I have to admit is that these (besides the pictures I posted earlier out my hotel balcony) were the ONLY pictures I took at ALT.  I brought my camera and two lenses because I wanted to capture every moment.  I guess I was too busy being caught up in all of the moments to pull out my camera.  The rest of my pictures that I will post will be from my camera phone.  C'est la vie!
