snow hike on SPRING break!

We had such a snowy late winter this year that we were able to go on a snow adventure this spring break!  It was warm enough to go out in winter coats but not be all bundled up and the boys had a blast going up and down the cliffs and exploring all there was to find.

The fun started in the parking lot - the boys were thrilled to be outside and FREE!
My sweet little 6 year old looked so cute with rosy cheeks out in the snow!
We were lucky enough to have Caiden with us most of the week since his parents both had to work. The boys love their days with Caiden!
 We went off the trails and down the hills to see what we could find.  It was nice not to worry about what weeds we'd get in to (as we are all super allergic to poison ivy and tend to get irritated skin whenever we go off the path in the spring!)
 The boys had fun sliding down the hills 
 until they got stuck in the trees!
 And I will say that taking the toddler out on the trails is waaaayyyyyy easy with a baby sled.  He loved to be pulled along and watch the big boys...and the sled can go where the stroller cannot!  This 3rd baby used the snowsuit and the sled TONS more than his 2 bigger brothers!
 What a great way to spend a spring break afternoon!
