inner kid

I spent Superbowl Sunday in Utah this year. In Heber City to be exact. The snow dumped pretty much the entire time we were there, making travel difficult in the non-snow-rated mini van that we rented. A group decision to spend the day at home had us searching for things to keep busy. And then it just happened.

Within 30 minutes our entire group was outside in snow gear PLAYING in the snow. I can't remember the last time I played in the snow. It was great. It was innocent (until Sarah started making Screwdrivers). It was like a true "school is closed for the day because of snow" day. There were snowballs thrown and buckets of snow dumped over people's heads. I had so much fun.

We all pitched in to make this amazing snow fort, though, truth be told...the real credit belongs to Cory, Dale and Doug for finishing it off and adding the snow slide. Yep, snow slide. You could walk up the notches in the side and slide right out the door. Made me realize how important it is to act like a kid sometimes.
