The holiday season this year felt different for Jon and I. Maybe it was knowing that we weren't going back to the Midwest, or maybe it was the craziness of the 4th quarter at work, but something about this Christmas felt a little off. Regardless, we still had a great month reflecting on Christ's birth and how thankful we are that God gave us a Saviour. We didn't deserve the blessing of God coming to earth and becoming a man, we can't fathom the cost of our sins and how they crushed Christ on the cross, and yet we have been given the privilege of a relationship with God despite ourselves! This Christmas, we celebrated these simple truths and the making of new traditions as well.
Our cozy family of two headed north for the white-capped peaks of Mammoth! After an all-night drive, we crashed for a couple of hours, loaded up on coffee, and then hit the mountain with everything we had! It was the best of times with my best friend, four feet of fresh pow, and a California ski town. If you can't be with all of your family on Christmas, playing in the snow is the next best thing.
new traditions in a frosted wonderland
unexpected storms gave way to perfectly powdered slopes
mornings welcomed with cup after cup of fresh brew
days filled with mountain-top adventures, pushing the limits and tumbling in powder
rewarded by hot showers & cozy evenings
accompanied by layered flannels & Christmas classics
...a Robert's Christmas
