Adventures in the snow

The last weekend of February was spent on snowmobiles heading into Layne and Sarah's cabin. They are so great to invite us each year and we always have a great time. In spite of such a mild winter, we managed to be up in the mountains the one weekend with lots of snow and crazy wind gusts. I was happy to stay inside with Kate and Richard was wonderful to play with the other kids outside! Plus, the boys were in heaven because Richard let them drive the snowmobiles quite a bit. I think everyone's faces were covered up more often than not, as you'll see from the pictures. We are just grateful for masks and goggles, because it was fuh-reezing! Now that we've had a few good snow days, bring on Spring! I'm ready for a warm up! I'd still love to take my boys skiing this year though.....so snow, you can stay.... but only in the mountains.

A nice stop at a little gas station for hot chocolate and beef jerky finally warmed us up. BTW- I think beef jerky and diet coke is a fabulous combination. Try it....you'll like it!
