Snow Day

As you can see it was a beautiful, sunny day in the Seattle area today. In fact, we are having several days in a row of sun this week!!! It's shocking! Which is why we, as a family, drove up to Snoqualmie Pass to see the snow-covered mountains and check out the winter sports. Let me tell you, it took us 40 min (at most) door to ski slopes or sledding. I can't believe this area we live in. Not only do we have lakes, sounds, hills, and mountains. We also have any summer/winter sport you could possibly want.

Anyway, we had a wonderful time at the Pass and will be taking some more trips up there this winter. We hardly get snow in Maple Valley, but who cares when you can have all the snow you want in 40 minutes.

Avery loved the sled.

Cambria is a true outdoors girl -- she loves every kind of outdoor activity.
