Adventures in the Snow

Did anyone else absolutely love the snow storm that just hit almost half of America? There is truly something magical about the snow. I believe it brings out the inner-kid in all of us.

Caleb and I spent almost all weekend in Central Park walking hand-in-hand, watching cross country skiers and kids {and many adults} sled down hills. Even the stairs in the park were covered in so much snow that they were all turned into designated sled areas. {it was actually quite funny to see the stairs at Bethesda Terrace being used as a sled racing zone. who would have guessed one of our city landmarks would be such a source of fun in the fresh powder?} The snow made the landmarks, statues, and sculptures even more romantic than normal. It was like God smiled down and decided to show off how artistic He really is. To say it was beautiful would be an understatement- seriously, pictures don’t do it justice. We even had a cotton-candy sunset the day following the blizzard!

After a long day of playing in the snow, Caleb and I realized we forgot to eat. Luckily, I had packed my new favorite snack. If you haven’t tried quinoa FLYJOY bars yet, you MUST! Normally I’m not a big energy bar person, but FLYJOY bars are made with all-natural ingredients, are non-GMO verified and are gluten-free. They even donate 10% of their profits to HOPE International. Yes, I’m a fan. {bonus: readers get 25% off all orders by using the code ART25 at checkout!}

I’ve said it a million times before and will continue saying it- everyone must visit this magical city at least once in their life! And when you come, let me know so we can meet up for coffee or tea!
