So we took advantage of the long weekend and drove to Flagstaff about 2 1/2 hours from our house. The Snow was breathtaking literally, the temp was about 24 degrees and it felt so fresh in our lungs. It was Alistair and Grace's first time seeing snow and though we were only there about an hour , we had a blast playing in it. Since Alistair is only 7 weeks , we bundled him up in the carseat with lots of blankets and only took him out for pictures...haha. His outfit is a little teddy bear jacket courtesy of Grandma McNeill. We really didn't know what Grace would do when she stepped into the snow for the first time, but we were surprised to see her running in it and loving it.
In the pictures you can see that she had a great time playing ball with Daddy and Me.
On our way up north we stumbled onto this fantastic radio station 105.1 FM , it played the most upbeat favorites of our generation. Unfortunately the station diminished once we hit Anthem area. It has been so long since we've made the trip to Flagstaff, in fact we have some friends that have lived there and gone to college in this city.
We'll be back in March for some R&R at the Fort Tuthill Recreational Park with our friends Amie, Jay, Ryan and Grandma McNeill. We are staying at the cabins there and hoped to do some skiing as well.

So pretty! I'm hoping some of the snow is still up there when we go in March! Lets cross our fingers!
