Oh The Places We Could Go... Leavenworth Family Getaway :-)

How important it is to take a sabbatical every once in a while; spending time away from the worries and monotony of everyday life-- work, the daily routine, commitments..."normal" life.

One of my favorite things to do is to dream of and explore different places that I would love to visit. Yesterday, I booked a "Family Weekend Getaway" to the winter wonderland known as "Leavenworth".

Here are a few of photos of the cabin we'll be staying at...


Gorgeous View of Lake Wenatchee!


I love cabins nestled in snowy, wooded forests...

Should I have mom bring her sewing machine & give some sewing lessons? Hmmmmm....


If Sam starts snoring during the middle of the night, I know where I'M heading! :-)

The perfect room for Kayla, Sam & me :-)

Fish themed bedroom-- I LOVE it!

Oooooh, nice access to the hot tub!

The perfect area to read a book & relax :-)

Nice kitchen space!

The perfect place to gather as a family & watch a good movie (note to self: bring popcorn & cocoa!)

Breathtaking views!


The countdown is on!

Unique features...
*30 minutes away from Stevens Pass for prime access to wonderful downhill skiing.
*Lake Wenatchee State Park hosts cross country/snow shoe trails and a sledding hill during the winter.
*Leavenworth is only 20 minutes away for a fun Bavarian village experience.

Alissa's "Wanna Do's"...
*Spend quality time with the family
*READ!
*Watch Movies
*Go Sledding
*Cross Country skiing?
*FISHING!!!
*Relax in the hot tub
*Play games with the family
*Enjoy good comfort food! :-)

I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend spending time with the people I love most. :-)

Blogging...

After my 4+ year hiatus from blogging--I am BACK!

I'm looking for a creative outlet, and I feel that this blog will help satisfy that desire. :-)

This blog will be short and sweet... the creative juices need time to start flowing... :-) I think they've been constipated...

More to come!
