Snow Snow Snow

We took up a trip to my parent's house the second week of Christmas break.  We met everyone up at the cabin in Tahoe.  (My parent's share it with my Aunt and Uncle and another family).  It was their week, so we drove all the way there from home.  It was a bit of a drive, but we were excited to see everyone and the girls were so excited to see snow.  They have never seen it before , and see it we did.  Abby asked me why all the houses were decorated with icicles.  We got to do our sibling gift exchange all cozy inside the night we arrived.  The next day we went out and played in the snow.
The snow was so powdery that it was too hard to make a snowman, or even snowballs.  But it was perfect for sledding.  It was so awesome to just sled right out the back door.  The snow was so deep and piled up on all the rooftops.  The girls had a blast.  I loved their rosy cheeks when they were trudging through the snow up to their waist.  Joey got so soaked playing in the snow. After being freezing cold, he was content to hold our new little nephew, Luke.  Such a sweet little guy.
It was a wonderful place to be together and I'm looking forward to many more trips there all year round.  Dianna and Nate took some great photos.
