Friday Outing

Today Darrick was in training today to be Command Duty Officer so he did not get home as early as he usually does. So we thought we might go for a drive to check out a hike. But as we got closer the temperature started dropping and it started raining. The higher up we went the colder it got until it was 35 degrees and there was a little bit of snow on the ground! The surrounding mountains were so beautiful with snow on them.

The kids wanted so bad to get out and feel the snow so we pulled over and let them out. They were so excited. The boys started to try to make little snowballs. Naomi has never felt or seen snow before and she could not wait to get at it!

She loved it and kept saying "This is cold!" She wanted to take it with her so we let her take a little piece but of course it melted.

Then on the home we saw a big fat raccoon! It was a great time!
