Skiing in New Hampshire

We are in New Hampshire! Along with the fabulous Sauls, we decided to take advantage of this long weekend and go skiing. The weather was perfect and we had an amazing time.

Walking in a winter wonderland

The weather man said that a storm was coming but by how clear it was yesterday, you would never guess. This morning we woke up, looked out the window and lo and behold...SNOW! Its been snowing pretty steady this whole morning. Having experienced snow only a handful of times in my life, I am loving it. My sweet husband...well he's a bit less excited. I think it must be because he spends most of his days outside. He is extremely excited to break out his skis this year however!

Time to look around!

Today was such a beautiful day here in Newport. The sun was out, there was not a cloud in the sky and it was a 'balmy' 40 degrees! We decided to take advantage of the weather and do some of the more 'touristy' things here in Newport. Unfortunately we didn't do any research beforehand and sadly most of the places we attempted to visit were closed. Oh well, there is still plenty of time. We did however have a great time driving by all the mansions and along the coast. This place is AMAZING!

Standing outside Fort Adams, sadly is was closed. :(

Happy New Years!

Todd and I along with our dear friends (and fellow newlyweds), Jp and Jennifer, decided that we needed to do something special to ring in 2008, so we packed our bags and headed to...Boston! We stayed at a very quaint hotel in the middle of the city that was reserved for only seafaring people (gotta love the Marine perks!). We then made our way to the club. We danced, drank Champagne and had an amazing time!
