Snow Day!






This last weekend there was a big storm that came through of rain in Glendora and snow in the local mountains. Jeff went backpacking in the snow on Saturday till Sunday. He had a great time with his professor Xander and really enjoyed some hiking. He hasn't been able to take a trip like this in a long time. On his way down the mountain he stopped to see our friends the Zeek family. They live in Forest Falls near Forest Home. We used to spend lots of time with them when we lived there for the summer. We haven't seen them in over a year so it was fun for Jeff to stop by. Since the boys had today off from school they invited our whole family back up to come hang out and play in the snow. It is only about an hour trip from our house. So we decided to go. It is the best place to have a snow day. The kids can play right outside of their house and come in to get warm and take a break. Beth and I get to catch up and hang out with Madeline while the big kids have fun in the snow. These pictures crack me up because only in Southern California do kids use boogie boards as sleds in the snow.

It was fun to have you come up. You're welcome any time.

Nope - even in the greatest snow on earth (Utah's slogan) the kids use boogie board sleds! We live on a hill on a golf course and they love how fast they can sled down the hill!!!
