Today, we drove up toward Flagstaff to play in the snow. This was the kids' first experience with snow! We had a nice little patch all to ourselves. It was pretty powdery, so snowballs only went about as far as the fingertips, but we did everything else you're supposed to do in snow...

Eating snow (Robbie probably ate several pounds)
A tiny snowman, complete with baby carrot nose (we didn't have high enough expectations to bring a full-size carrot)

The best part about driving up to the snow? Leaving it there when we're done!
We had a great time, and the kids were happy to finally experience this mysterious snow they've heard so much about! Rob and I were happy that we both still fit into our ski pants. Something for everyone!
