Yesterday was a snow day in Vail. When I saw the snow slowly start to fall in the morning I was overwhelmingly excited. It has been years, and years since I’ve seen it snow (early childhood), so it was a lot of fun to see the snow fall from the sky, and to have it kiss my cheeks.
Wool coat: Guess

Down the road from where we are staying there is a cute bridge that goes over the river that I showed the other day. Since I’ve been here I’ve must have walked it twenty times, as it is the easiest way to get down the hill that our hotel sits on.
Throughout the day the snow came down harder, and harder. Sometimes it was to the point that I couldn’t see across the street. However, I never found myself too cold. I think I will attribute this to the fact that I was wearing extra warm clothes yesterday. That coat is seriously such a lifesaver.
I had this feeling of nostalgia more than once while watching the snow fall. It was amazing to see such beautiful, delicate tiny shapes fall from the sky. The roads I walked had this special shine to it, and it almost looked like I was walking on glitter.
Did I mention that I loved being the only girl wearing rubine colored tights and a dress outside? I didn’t see one girl wearing a dress and tights that day, only snow boarding gear. So to be wearing such pretty clothing in the snow made me feel good, and a little unique (Did you see that girl from Arizona wearing tights and a dress outside? She must be crazy!).
Today will be spent with my mom and dad mostly. I also hope to grab a few cups of coffee, and take some more pretty photos. I’m really enjoying going out on my own and taking photos, but still, I miss my photographer.
What does your day look like today? Have you finished Christmas shopping?
