Snow{shoe} Day!

Mark has been traveling a lot over the last month...which has been hard.  The good part is that he usually ends up with quite a bit of time off at the end of the year {over Christmas break:}. Tuesday morning was originally supposed to be a "serious prep day" for the big event, but with fresh snow that had fallen the day before, we opted for a day in the mountains.  We dropped off the girls at school and then headed up toward Pahaska to do some snowshoeing. 

  It started to snow as we got higher up, and it was COLD.  But once we got moving we warmed up pretty quick!!  We hiked along the river and saw all these cute little summer cabins.  It got us talking about how great it would be to have a little place like that to escape...or live:}

 It was such a fun way to spend the day....even if we did have things we needed to do.  Sometimes it's worth it to be able to sneak away and have some time together. 

All too soon, it was time to load up and head back to reality.  I could really get used to days like this:}
