Lake Arrowhead

Kenneth's parents came out to Cali April 8th-15th to use their time share up at Lake Arrowhead, and we were happy to be invited along.  We drove up on Sunday, Kenneth left that evening, and he rejoined us for Emily's birthday on Wednesday.  We spent some fun time playing games at the condo, catching up on all the family news, walking around the lake and feeding the ducks, and playing at the local playground.  Unfortunately I got zero pictures until Wednesday.  Contrary to what you might think, the weather was very nice prior to Wednesday when it started snowing very heavily!  We were joking about it afterwards because prior to driving out, Kenneth's mom asked us if they should bring snow chains.  We almost laughed on the phone because it has been so hot lately...little did we know the joke was on us - especially after our car got stuck in the snow going into the condo!  The last post shows pictures of Emily's birthday, and these photos captured our days out at the lake after watching the snow fall for a day and a half.  Both Danny and Emily were mesmerized by the snow, and they were especially excited to watch the tractors plow the snow afterwards.  Here are some photos:



I loved all the fog!



Emily was in love with all the ducks






Danny thought throwing snowballs was pretty funny...until Dad got him really good!


This tree was covered in icicles.  It was beautiful.







We had to dig our car out and Danny had lots of fun helping Dad and Grandpa.  There was about 8 inches on top.






Danny loved to walk around the shops and see all the bears
 Well, that's it.  We had a wonderful time with Kenneth's parents.  Thanks so much for inviting us!
