We ventured out to Montana over Christmas break.
It was so nice to get away from all the craziness and true to form work picked up as soon as we were on the airplane. I've spoken with others in the 'biz and it seems to be universally true. Work always speeds up when your on or TRYING to be on vacation. That said, it is always wonderful when something comes together for a client, and if it has to be on my vacation, so be it.
We really enjoyed Big Sky MT. Beautiful, beautiful place. Even this summer, beach, flip flop girl can admit that. We were joined by our friends, Esther, Jane, Mark and Mike. It was definitely wonderful to be able to vacation with them and share new experiences. Over the week I was lucky enough to showshoe, downhill ski, cross country ski, get a workout in (eliptical, etc) and go for a run. Great week.

Now back to the madness.
Oh, PS. We learned a really good way to get a 4 year old to eat baked beans. Just inform the whipper snapper that they'll make him fart!
