Do you notice something missing? We are in the mountains in January and there is no snow! Last year when we went we were able to walk right outside the cabin, play in the snow and even sled. We still made the most of our stay despite the weird winter weather and had a great time together. Family time is always awesome!
We spent a day at Bear Valley Ski Resort. They made snow there and had a few runs open. It was almost comical driving to the ski resort. It was a gorgeous day, blue skies, hot outside, no snow anywhere to be seen and here we are getting ready to go skiing. You walk through the parking lot to the other side of the resort and BAM... snow. Gotta love man made snow!

We spent another day exploring areas we had never been to. Areas that are closed in the winter due to snow. We hiked around the Stanislaus River and even went panning for gold and did a little 4 wheeling. The boys love the outdoors. Daddy taught them so much as we explored. It was a ton of fun!
We scoped out some campgrounds to come back to this summer and enjoyed lunch at one of the day use areas. It was such a gorgeous day and totally felt like June instead of January.
After our fun filled days we spent our evenings cooking dinners together, playing games (lots of monopoly) and watching movies. I especially enjoyed relaxing here every night. I could have just sat in this bathtub the whole trip and been happy.
Josh and Jason are at such fun ages. It is great to be able to go on trips like this together and have such fun adventures and make so many memories. Can't wait for the next one!
