Feb 2023 Recap

Super bowl Sunday! All our favorite foods and the raspberry mousse cake we look forward to alllll year. President’s Day weekend at Keystone. Blake opted not to come this time, so we took Max instead! It was quite windy one day and they shut down a few lifts. This resulted in a HUGE line. So…
