Flagstaff Vacation

With our winter vacation coming to an end soon, we decided to take a mini vacation and play in some snow. There is one thing I learned in those quick 2 days....we are Phoenicians through and through. We could barely handle the cold and were complete wimps. Aiden was a natural snow bunny and didn't complain about the cold once. Yesterday we arrived at Little America Hotel and it was just beautiful. We were very impressed. Shortly after we got settled I saw that they had horse drawn sleigh rides and I was like a little kid! So awesome! Then we played in the snow around the hotel and enjoyed our night.

Beautiful light display at hotel
Today we went to Wing Mountain play area to play in the snow more. The boys started with a snowman! It was so cold that making a snowman from scratch proved to be too difficult so we had to cheat a little and use balls that had been made previously and left. It worked and Aiden was happy with the results.
