Yesterday, we loaded up our SUV and headed to the Sierra Mountains. With 4 feet of fresh snow fall this week, the twins, their "Momo" from Virginia and I bundled up in our warmest winter wear and spent the day enjoying a taste of winter at an elevation of 4,000+ feet. There were snow showers, snow ball fights, snow angels and snow eating contests! At the end of the snowy day, the twins were sound asleep by 6:30 PM and didn't wake up until 7:30 AM today. Talk about a fun day that totally wore them out...I can't remember the last time the twins were in bed that early or slept that late.
Side note: Our SUV was fantastic in the snow yesterday as we climbed through the mountains - we even got to use the 4WD at some points in our route!!! By the way, I'm happy that we chose to go yesterday and not today because the Sierras are getting another dumping of fresh snow as I sit here and type this posting, and I wouldn't want to be caught in a snow storm in the Sierra Mountains as it's happening at 4,000 feet...
