We’re getting close! Last night was our big sleigh ride and dinner out at 4 Eagle Ranch. We had a blast. Lori was saaying how short she is as she was in 3 inch heels!
First up Lori and Jag and I ran down to Denver for some last minute shopping which was four pair of pants for Jag and returning a few things. The storm was bad going down and I thought we might have trouble getting back up but it was fine. We did stop by Tom and Ali’s to say hi for five minutes and raid his refrigerator. He was making more cookies! Ty was on the mountain all day long hitting every single back bowl with his friend Will. Then around 5 wde headed out for the ranch.
We bundled up as it was cold and only going to get colder. We had arranged two back tables for our group of 18 and they gave us the VIP treatment. After everyone arrived meaning the other 40 people or so that had booked reservation months ago, they took us out first for a sleigh ride. It was really fun and James and I finally, after a few failed trys, got our whole group singing. Then we came back to a great buffet dinner. After a while they asked if we wanted to go again and I decided to grab Burt who was this older guy (probably my age, ha) who had been playing guitar and singing all night for the crowd, and took him on the sleigh with us. Not sure if he knew he was sitting next to the lead singer of arguably the most famous heavy metal rock band in the World but James and I were singing along with him the whole ride. On the first sleigh ride, like I said, we did too but soon forgot some of the words to some of the Christmas carols we were singing. Our whole group finally joined in and saved us, including even Lori! Now she’s a good singer but usually only sings in the shower. Anyhow we had a balst and Burt was very appreciative of the $100 we slipped him. Other people were wondering how come they didn’t get the guitar player to go on their sleigh ride. We all had a great time and great evening. It just night be a new annual tradition.
Today Ty wants to go back to the mountain. Not sure what we’re doing. I think we’re going to Marty and Melanie’s tonight. Jags hand is doing a little better and he’s only taking Tylenol and reluctant to even take that. Harley woke me early around 5:15 barking as she had to go out and was in her crate a lot yesterday. So here I am with everyone else still sleeping.
We both look like we had a little too much egg nog here but neither of us drink! Must have been too many ribs! Hope you all have a great day, Merry Christmas and God Bless.
