Let It Snow!

Wow! What a wonderful day! Anika had a day off of school yesterday so we borrowed some snow pants, boots and sleds (thanks, Jen!) and headed up to the mountains. We had so much fun. It took about 2 hours to get to Strawberry where we could just pull off to the side of the road and find a hill to sled down. It was a gorgeous 40+ degrees and we all got exhausted hauling ourselves and our sleds up the hill! Surprisingly, Anika & Kat were the daredevils on the sled while Drew preferred to throw snowballs. (Well, throwing the snowballs wasn't surprising but not being fond of sledding was!)

Suited up and ready to go:

All done and warming up:

How fun! I bet your kids were good and tired that night! (I can't believe how much snow melted in front of the store in Strawberry...you should have seen it 3 weeks ago!)
