X-mas in Utah

Reka and I flew to Utah to visit my family for the holidays. Although we spent most of our time at my parents house we did get the opportunity to ride some of Utahs famous dry powder. Our good friends Chris and Carol picked us up at the airport with their amazingly smart daughter Mikayla. We spent the next few hours eating and drinking and catching up. After dinner we headed to there house and played Tony Hawks Pro Skater until our thumbs were sore.


In the morning, we packed up and headed to Brighton to ride some of that dry, fluffy powder. Although they did not get that much snow over night the few inches were great! It was probably one of Chris' worst snow days of the season but it was awesome if you compare it to the typical wet and heavy snow we get in Washington. Reka and I had a great time at Brighton and hope to be able to return soon.

The rest of the weekend was spent at family christmas parties and seeing family members that I have not seen for a long time. It has been a very good weekend but Reka and I are very glad to be back in Seattle. Even though it has been raining since we got home.
