First trip of the year.

We spent the first day of the new year in the snow... kind of. We drove about 100 miles north-east of Phoenix and ended up near a place called Christopher Creek. We really enjoy this place during the summer, so we thought we'd check it out during the winter.  When we got out to play, it was SUNNY! - and about 50 degrees. Not bad weather at all. The kids had fun... poor Nic's fingers were cold from all of the snowballs he made and threw at us.

We ended the day with a packed picnic lunch, and made it back down to the valley just in time to witness beautiful sunsets and twilight. We live in such a beautiful state. Lucky us.

Happy New Year!
