Snow Day

We recently took the kids to Yosemite to play in the snow. We all had a great time! Tobin loved patting the snow with his gloves, being carried in the front pack almost constantly, but he didn't really like falling off the toboggan face first into the snow, TWICE, poor guy! Cassidy was grumpy until she discovered all the fun things there were to do in the snow. Her favorite: climbing up the big hill to where Daddy was, and watching the sledders. Anna crashed pretty hard her first try sledding, but we got her right back on and she did great. She loved making and throwing snowballs too! We didn't get any great pictures of Caleb because he was WAY too busy sledding, running, teasing, building sled runs, etc. Theron fixed up the sledding run we found, adding snow, removing snow, until it was a smooth run for the kids without the big bumps and bad spots that were making everyone crash. I loved sledding, but without snow clothes, I was SOAKED! It was totally worth it though. We are definitely going again next year!
