We had a good snow storm up north during the second week in February so we went up near Flagstaff to play in the snow on Valentine's Day.
I've never been a big fan of playing in the snow...i
t's cold...you get all wet and sometimes muddy...it takes hours to get there and to find the right spot...ugh!!! But Bly always loves a chance to take the kids, so grudgingly, I went.We stopped to buy MORE gear which is another thing I hate about snow trips...
we always need more gear.
Anyway, when we got there, found a place, and hit the slopes. The sun was shining! The snow was perfect! and we all stayed warm and dry with our new gear. What a great day!!!We had so much fun sledding...
eating fried chicken...
building a snowman...
And then... Dad tackled it.
We ended our trip with some yummy Hot Cocoa that we fixed on our little camp stove. When we got back into the car and headed home, Natilee slept most of the way home, but then she suddenly woke up and emphatically proclaimed..."That was the BEST SNOW TRIP EVER!!!" It was worth all the hassle. I think we all agree...it WAS the BEST SNOW TRIP EVER!!!
That looks like so much fun! I am glad you guys all went up! Man I wish we weren't so busy so we could do stuff like that with you guys! HA I bet dad had snow in his pants after tackling that snowman! LOVE YA
