President's Snow Day

Steve decided that we needed an outing. He was right too. Initially when he proposed we go to the snow for President's day, I told him he could go with the kids if he wanted to-There is always so much to do around here and besides, I don't have snow clothes any longer. As always, he expressed his desire for me to go along and After thinking about it for a few days, the morning of, I decided to go too. Mom must've felt like I did, because she said the same thing. But as the excitement of everyone getting ready continued to progress, she changed her mind as well, and came along for the ride!
We had a pleasant ride, visiting all the way up the mountain and enjoying the beautiful view. 

You can bet that as soon as we got there, the children were ready to play!
 While we adults were getting all situated, they were throwing snowballs
Some were quite amazing!
Some of us that hadn't been before, had no idea what kind of treat we were in for!
But after selecting our tubes
and going down our first run...
we were hooked and sold!


We took a break to eat lunch at the car, where Mom decided to set up camp for those that needed to come to the car, and read. It was always a delight to see her. She was so fun and chipper! 


We were making faces at each other










The children were WONDERFUL...



And Steve was his regular selfless, amazing and fun self.

Every one of us walked away...


Saying it was DEFINATELY worth it!


                     A cherished memory with one another. As we were leaving, it began to snow.

                                          We couldn't have asked for a more PERFECT day together.

What They Say Wednesday

"If I didn't have the sense of taste like some people don't, I would eat really healthy!"
