A special day!

Today marks a very special day!  It is the last day of corporate world work for my dad, Steve.  We are so super proud of my dad for all of the hard work and dedication to his job over the years.  We are excited for him to have a little more free time and wish him nothing but the best in his next chapter of life.  We are hoping that it may include some more trips to Europe...hint, hint!
As we Sullivan's have definitely learned through our experiences living abroad...life is an adventure.  
Dad, we love you and hope you truly enjoy wherever your next adventure takes you! 
xoxo

Skiing Fun!

A few weeks ago we ventured off to Engelberg, Switzerland for a skiing adventure.  We had visited this same place last year with our former neighbors and loved it...so we were definitely excited to go back!  We went with a big group of friends and rented a great apartment for the weekend.  The trip was a blast filled with skiing, wine, incredible views, lounging and relaxing and more wine! Our friend, Mel and I were definitely the beginner skiers so we decided to take a lesson to help refresh our skills on the slopes. : )  It was probably a good thing that we did.  Since according to our super skier friends...skiing even the easy hills in the Alps is a lot more difficult than skiing in the states.  All in all an awesome weekend with some great friends!  We already have plans to schedule a similar trip for next year!

Fun times on the lift!


Looking good guys!


A little mid-ski break....

And relaxing.



Amazing views

Our favorite break spot had outdoor loungers






The local monastery in town

Is anyone surprised that Tom asked for a bib at dinner?




Mel and I ready for our ski lesson!


Can you see us about halfway up the mountain?

Here we come...no falls yet!



Apparently I was excited about making it down without falling


We loved our ski instructor, Martin!



A girls day for R&R!



Such breathtaking scenery!
