frozen lakes and so much snow

I flew back to my homestate, Washington State, for Christmas. Visited family and friends.

Drove around North Central Washington with my then boyfriend... now Fiancee!!! He proposed on a frozen lake.

Here are some photos of our 5 day road trip. I had never been on a frozen lake before! Or seen much of NCW as an adult, and rarely during winter. It was great to piece together my fuzzy childhood memories of beautiful forests and cute western towns, and even the home town of my grandpa and where I used to visit my great grandparents.

Happy New Years!
