Snow Trip Snapshots

It's so nice to be back here at the blog again! I'd like to thank my four awesome guest posters: Maria, Chelsea, Lou, and Ciera! You guys rock!

I had a lovely time up in the mountains and I must say, 4 days without internet and wifi really forces you to relax. Since this was a family trip, I guess you could say that was a good thing!
Checking out my boots before taking a small trek in the snow.
 Enjoying some warm (but just a wee bit toasted) waffles for breakfast.
A peek into one of the quaint little bedrooms in the cabin...
A little warm raspberry-honey tea takes you a long way after a cold day in the snow! Enjoying a nice cup of it near a fireplace while it's snowing is picture-perfect.
 I took this pretty scenic snapshot as we headed home, and I must say, I think I'll really miss being in the midst of a heavy snowfall in a nice warm cabin. It was nice to unplug for a bit, and I finally finished my current book read, The Secret Life of Bees (which was really good by the way). This little vacation was a great way to "pause" things for a bit and really brainstorm what's up next here at Modern Buttercup. I'm thrilled for the changes ahead!

xoxo, Nat

  1. Where about in the mountains were you? I was fortunate enough to live in the mountains for four months and I'll have the same chance April-September to do that again up in northern Alberta! Looks like a cozy, relaxing time. New follower found you through Kitty & Buck!

  2. These pictures are nice, and that view looks amazing. I wish I could live somewhere like that forever or at least have a cabin somewhere. But I basically live in it, here in Minnesota haha.

  7. Looks so pretty. My family & I just got home from a trip to the mountains too. It's always so peaceful and relaxing, but super cold this time of year.
