Snow At Last!




Anyone who has traveled with children knows how patient you must be. That said, Justin and I were going crazy by the time we arrived in Cedar City because all Parker talked about the ENTIRE way there was snow. He wanted to touch snow. He wanted to eat a snowflake. He hates the sun because it melts the snow. You get the picture. Snow was in the forecast, but you never know with the weather. Well, as we got close to Beaver, about an hour outside of Cedar City, it started to snow. It was the melt as soon as it hits kind, but snow none the less. Parker was temporarily satisfied. He stuck his hand outside the car until it was frozen, but had at least touched snow. As we rounded the corner to Grandpa and Grandma's, we were thrilled to see that the snow plow had made a huge pile of the remaining snow right in front of their garage.




It kept Parker entertained the entire time we were there. He and Justin built a snow cave out of it and it also provided us with more than enough snowballs for a good fight.



On our last day there, we woke up to actual snow falling from the sky. It was just enough to make everything beautiful but also keep the roads safe for our return to Salt Lake City.




Justin took Spencer out to experience his first snow. I am not sure how much he understood what was happening, but he seemed to like it.
