My family rented a cabin so we could enjoy the little snow we have gotten this year up north! We actually went on the perfect weekend since it had just snowed and a little more was to come. We are so thankful they do this because we actually get to go on vacation!! We arrived first since Rylee had a half day at school and the kids were extremely eager to get in the snow!
The next day, Scott and the girls went outside first. When I went out to see what they were up too, Scott had hiked all the way up to the top of the road with plans to sled down it. It was very successful so we were able to have an amazingly long and fast sled ride right outside our front door!
It was quite a hike to the top but so worth it. I must have hiked it at least 15 times, one of those times I carried Zach all the way up for his first sledding adventure. I don't think he liked it all that much though..
So Zach hung out with Uncle Terry, or whoever was not sledding at the time. 
Zach hated the snow. He didn't mind the flat spots with minimal snow, but the deeper stuff he would just cry if we sat him down. He even hated touching it. 
My Aunt went down the hill almost as much as the kids and I did. Sometimes we'd catch her trekking up by herself.
Rylee sledding with her new BFF, aka Uncle Terry. These 2 were inseparable that weekend. And when we left, she cried saying her favorite part was hanging out with Terry!
My Mom even went down a few times. Couldn't convince her to go down from the top but the girls were thrilled to go down with Grammie.
At the bottom of the road it turned to the right and you had to pull a Cool Runnings move to successfully turn the corner to keep going. I held the record for going the farthest (boo ya Scott). Haylee and I made a great team. The boys also built a jump at the bottom and Terry decided to show me how cool this was, saying I just had to try it. The suspense and coolness came to a quick halt when he came to a dead stop at the start of the jump. I laughed pretty hard. I tried it though and made it over the jump but then got stuck in the snow. Rylee then tried it and landed in a bush. Nice jump, boys.
We went out to lunch at the lodge just down the road and when we came back the snow had melted enough to make a small snowman.
We then crashed inside. It was a tiring day! We came up with this plan to put Rylee up on the beam in the living room of our cabin. She agreed but then quickly changed her mind.
So I stepped up to the plate. Ha ha
The next morning, the snow had melted too much to sled anymore so we were at a loss of what to do. But then it started snowing! It came down pretty good and it was so nice to actually see it snow! It also snowed enough we could make a few more sled runs down the hill. It was icy and scary in some spots but still fun.
Here is Zach walking around with his tongue out trying to catch a snowflake.
I couldn't get over how adorable Zach looked in his snow gear. I loved it.
The whole gang just before we left!
