While some famous jet-setters preferred to swap chilly climes for sunshine over the holidays, when it came to marking the arrival of 2007 there was only one place Heidi Klum and Seal wanted to be - and that was in the traditional winter wonderland of Colorado's Aspen ski resort.
The glamorous model and mother of three Heidi Klum ushered in the New Year with a romantic smooch with husband Seal at a party in the mountain village. The loved-up duo, who welcomed their third child - Johan - at the end of November, were spending the festive period in the luxurious resort with their young family.
The mountains hold a special appeal for the fashionable pair, as Seal proposed to his German love at the Canadian ski resort of Whistler in an igloo built specially for the occasion.
Heidi and Seal were not the only ones to opt for a snowy festive season. Desperate Housewives star Nicollette Sheridan and Michael Bolton were also spotted taking to the slopes at the Colorado resorts, which is one of America's most upmarket ski centres. Other famous faces opting for its picturesque surroundings included Robert De Niro, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez and Will and Jada Smith.
