We once again rang in the New Year with a snowshoe hike followed by dinner at my parents' house. This year we actually made it to the top of the hill in time to see the fireworks at the Canyons Resort. Mary joined us with her new snowshoes, and she is definitely becoming accustomed to the mountains! We are in the back right of the photo.
Joe and I also skied at Deer Valley on Dec 31st, and it was a beautiful day! We met up with the Navarres, and it was fun to catch up with them. 
This past weekend, I had the house to myself, as Joe was at a retreat! I spent Saturday morning with my mom, and then Mary and I attempted another snowshoe hike! As soon as we buckled on our snowshoes, the wind decided to blast us! We started up the hill, but soon decided the wind was too dangerous and we were freezing! So, we walked around the school behind our house, and that was plenty of wind for us! We felt like we were climbing Mt. Everest, but we were only on a sidewalk! I was hoping to have a picture from the hike, but we'll take one when we try the hike on a sunny warm day!

I'm so glad that someone is enjoying this winter. We have had two light snowfalls for the whole season thus far. December was 7 inches below normal---and normal is 7.5 inches! My kids are dying to play in snow. I guess we have to visit...
It looks like winter. Wow.
