Travel & Vacation: Snow Days

Jake walking through the woods with his girls.  This area had changed a lot since we had been there last (besides the snow) there was a clearing were the loggers had been.

The girls had a grand time exploring the area.  We took several walks that let to the river or other places nearby.   A couple times we stopped to take a break or they got pulled on the sled but for the most part they kept up.  We even built a snowman this year which was a lot of fun.  Little pieces of the snowman (mouth, nose, etc…) started falling off throughout the weekend but he remained standing even as we were getting ready to leave.

The river looks a little chilly! The last time we were in Vermont we were swimming and splashing around in it.

Brina decided she was too cold so she went inside with Grandma and watched from the window

Karlie loving the snow.  She’s rolling down a small hill instead of sledding down it.

Aw….this snow is so soft!

Karlie standing above us on a rock. She was up their giggling as we came walking by her.

Karlie is aiming for me! Yikes!

The “Travel and Vacation” series is an insight into our trips together as a family and ways we relax.  Life is short and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to build memories with family and explore of of the most amazing places during our time away.  Explore with a good attitude, look for fun, and it will be an awesome trip jammed packed with positive memories.  It is refreshing having some time away from the regular routine.  Make it a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet new people and learn.  You just might see or try something new that takes your breath away!
