We took the kids up to Mt. Baker on Sunday to play in the snow. They have a great place to sled, but it is a lot of work! Those hills are steep to climb back up. After sledding for a while, then having lunch, we went off into the virgin snow and built a couple forts and had snowball fights. We finished up the day with a few more sled runs and hit the road back home. All three kids fell asleep within minutes of coming down off the mountain. It takes about 2 hours to get home, so it's not exactly something we can just hop in the car and do on the spur of the moment. There's a lot of planning, Marcus has to get the day off, and food to pack. We had a good time and need to do it more often. We're thinking of planning something during "mid-winter" break and actually having the kids take ski or snowboard lessons. It's something they've always wanted to do, but we've just never made the time to do. Maybe it's time!!
