Let's go play in the snow!

We've had some interesting weather here in Vegas. We've really enjoyed the rain and cooler temperatures. Sunday after church we took the kids up to play in the snow. Riley had been asking to go all week, and we didn't want to put him of again. So we piled everyone up in the van and up the mountain go. It was getting dark, but we had a blast. It took the kids a few minutes to decided that snow was going to be fun. It was really cold, and we didn't have gloves for them. But with a little ingenuity, a pair of socks and mommy's over sized gloves, all was well. Someone had made a snow man, which Riley really thought was wonderful. He wanted to make one too, but it was a little late and cold. Plus the snow wasn't really sticky enough to make a good one. He wasn't happy but he'll live. They did have fun throwing snow balls. All in all a great outing!

What a great idea! I never thought of going up the mountain. I just figured Ryan would never see snow living in Las Vegas.
