After the concert last night, we went to Jeff's place for games and bourbon. We started off with Twister. Here's a tip: never play Twister with Trevan. That boy is ruthless.
I'm sure all the alcohol we drank didn't help much, either.
From there, we migrated to a game of Settlers--another game best played not under the influence, especially when Pete had never played before and was definitely trying Trevan's patience.
Did I mention there was booze involved?
Needless to say, we all crashed on Jeff's floor. Pete got the munchies at 3 AM and totally delved into some ice cream. Those guys are a riot.
When we woke up this morning, we were delighted to find several inches of fresh snow had fallen. We dressed and headed to breakfast at The Bakery, where I had the best croissant ever.
Everyone else had stuff to do the rest of the day, but I decided to take advantage of my time in SLC. I took care of a little Christmas shopping and went to see Before The Devil Knows You're Dead. It was pretty intense, but I really liked it. Then I had some afternoon coffee with Jonathan and Freddie.
After coffee, I was going to head home, but as I passed Liberty Park, I couldn't help but notice how lovely it looked with a fresh blanket of snow. So I took these pictures.
The pond was almost frozen over, and the poor ducks had no clue what to do. I wished I had some bread to feed them.
I wasn't exactly dressed to trek around in the snow, so my feet were pretty soaked after a few minutes, but it was worth it. The branches of the trees hung so low under the weight of the snow, and it got me all excited. Not just for snowboarding, but for hanging indoors with friends and hot cocoa and going home for Christmas.

2nd from the bottom is my fave.
Even though I was trying Trevan's patients... I believe I did a stand up job of learning such a complicated game so well while under the influence! :)
Look forward to playing it again! (but only in our underwear again)
You take the best pictures.
