We had plans for being away this winter break for five days, three nights at our cousins cabin, then two nights at our friends' cabin in Pinecrest, BUT, my Mom was admitted to the hospital on Friday, and I didn't feel comfortable leaving for so long. We even debated if we should go at all, being a storm was coming in, but, we decided to chance it anyways on Valentine's Day, for just a few days in Pollock Pines. It was a beautiful day, and when we hit the mountains, there was definitely alot of snow, and, SO breathtaking.
This is what it looked like in Pollock Pines when we got there:
A few guys drove by as David starting to shovel a spot for the car, and they offered to snowplow the driveway (for a fee, of course). David said that was the best thing he paid for all day.
The kids' were already upstairs playing Mario Cart on the Wii, and that evening, David fixed a nice dinner.......clam chowder in bread bowls, garnished with asparagus and shrimp.
February 15, 2009 - Sunday morning brought more snow, and it snowed all day.
David made a saucer run on the driveway and the kids had a blast. Even Lily had fun in the snow; her first time to the cabin and snow with us.
SNOW ANGELS
After playing in the snow, we took Lily for a walk.
Back inside, in warm, dry clothes, and a warm fire.....notice Brandon and how he's driving Mario Cart....and Lily, our marble fudge dog who blends in with the carpet.
A special thanks to our cousins, Lany & Lisa, for letting us use their warm, comfortable, retreat throughout the years. THANK YOU!!! We love it there!!
