Adult SNOW DAY!

Hooray for adult SNOW DAYS!
Today Highlands Ranch was forecasted to get 18-21 inches of snow... I just heard on the news that parts of HR got 26 inches!  It has been snowing all day, but at least one member of our household is loving it! 

Hubble got to spend some extra time outside today just lounging and playing in the snow.  He didn't want to come in!  He laid around and watched the kids sledding on the golf course for a bit.
(I'm just loving the excuse to stay home from work!)
Here's a couple of shots from our backyard.

The ruler is close to 14 inches at this point of the day.

So, today I got to be lazy and catch up on my book for book club- currently reading The Paris Wife by Paula McLain, catch up on new (and old) TV, and work my way through a couple of the fitness magazines.  Where does the time go when you are doing nothing?! 

 The extra day also gave me some time to check out Denver Restaurant Week reservations! 

I haven't been posting much about the restaurants we've visited lately... and that's mainly because we haven't been eating out.  That's about to change because I am SO looking forward to Denver Restaurant Week coming up February 25 - March 9.  Participating restaurants offer a special menu for two for $52.80.  

Here's what on our reservation list (so check back for reviews!) 

Ocean Prime

Vesta Dipping Grill

TAG Restaurant

Yum! Let the countdown to restaurant week begin!

I also filled some time browsing blogs and pinterest for some new recipes.  It's my goal to get back into some kind of cooking routine... I've definitely been slacking lately and reverting back to some simple staples like salads, pasta, and enchiladas.  I think I found some winning recipes - so now I just need to plan ahead some time to make them!
