Whiskey For Breakfast

I can't believe it's Good Friday, that Easter is only two days away, and that we are already 1/3rd through 2013. Time {sure does} fly when you are having fun.

Speaking of fun, I'm going to tell you about St. Patrick's Day. Obviously, Will was in training, but our friend Buck decided that we were going snowboarding.  I was apprehensive about going without Will, however, Buck is our so-called "son", which is the next best thing. I've mentioned him many times, and realize I haven't told you much about him,
so here he is:

+ He's a Texan
+ An NCO in the Army 
+ He loves Breckenridge Whiskey and mashed potatoes
+ He only eats vegetables when I make him
+ He will be in Alaska in less than a year, so single Alaskan ladies...get READY!

At first, I was super pumped for a holiday in the snow, but on the way up we realized that the snow wasn't going to let up. I HATE snowboarding unless it is bright and sunny, so I decided that we needed a hearty meal before braving the weather.

Now, you know I don't drink, but as you can imagine, I ALWAYS get carded when I do partake. That is, except for this day, because as Buck put it, "They figure you are over 21 if you order whiskey with your breakfast." Don't judge me, I was trying to warm up from the inside out.

Shots at 9AM? Why not.

The sun never really made an appearance, but it wasn't too bad and we were shreddin'. I definitely saw some improvement and we had a great time with lots of laughs and lots of rolling down the mountain for both of us.

After our bodies couldn't take anymore, we went to see some friends that live in Dillon, and we all went to dinner at the Dam Brewery. It has THE BEST Buffalo burgers in the world. Hands down. When we head up there this weekend, I hope we get to go again!

We found out the boys have Monday off, so we are taking advantage of the three day weekend. There are already plans of parties, snowboarding, yummy food, and hopefully a little relaxation {in my dreams}. Hubby is even getting work done on his side tattoo by our friend Chago. I wanted to get one too, but I think it will have to wait. His is going to take about five hours, which equals a LOT of money. Yes, I know it will still be the same amount of money whether I do it now or later, but my cheapskate side doesn't see it that way. Hehe.

Anywhoo, in spite of my tattoo probs, the weekend should be perfect. I hope the same for you all too, and Happy Easter! Let's hope the Easter Bunny sends good weather to us all ;)
