Snow Ball Fight!

A few weeks ago we loaded up the minivan and headed up to the family cabin in Placerville. There had been a storm the week before and the snow was still scattered around the property. The sun was shining bright; the weather was so warm we didn't even wear jackets. It was perfect for a good snow ball fight. The kids got into the spirit immediately, and in no time they were soaked. Their screams of delight and giggles echoed through the forest. Before we knew it, we were joined by our deer family - the same 5 deer that visit us each day we are there throughout the year. The mother and her three babies came right to the snow line to watch us play. We had such a fabulous time! The next day it began to rain. The remaining snow melted away as we packed the car to come home. We all hope there is another good snow storm before the season is over!
