Wildflower festival

Perfect weather but didn't see wildflowers this year. Maybe we didn't hike far enough.

5th grade Science Camp

Can't wait to hear how it was.

Melting snow

Me and big E this weekend enjoying Big Bear. Snow is melting quickly but it's supposed to snow again tonight. Tomorrow should be a Powder day. Didn't get the picture of Ethan floating down the river because I was too busy screaming for him to get to shore. Ethan enjoys playing with our neighbor Jackson. Can't tell you how thankful we are to have this retreat in the mountains.

Snow melt

Amazing how much snow melts in a week. Still plenty of white stuff but at least we can park in the garage.

Great neighbors

While we are basking in Palm Desert
our neighbors are shoveling off 3 feet of fresh powder. Just asked if our roof hadn't collapsed and they grabbed shovels and started digging. Wish we had the such great neighbors in Palm Desert.

Sunnylands

They were supposed to have a family day celebrating the Chinese New Year but concerns about the weather canceled the event. Luckily we were still able to walk the gardens before the rain started.

Established in 2k

This sign fits much better in Big Bear instead of Palm Desert.

More snow

Back up to check on the house. Lots of new snow and no leaking roof. Beautiful up in the mountains today. Going for a nice hike before it gets dark.

Jogging back in the desert

The mountain is great but so is the warm desert.

Our 1st visitor

Happy to have you up to Big Bear Bro/Uncle

Happy New Year

A great start to 2017

Boys shoveling

New Years resolution is to have boys do more independent work. Shoveling the snow is a good start.

Snowy Christmas

Happy campers!

Lots of snow!

Sledding with the neighbors right across the street from our house. There must be at least a foot of snow and it's still falling!

Snow

It's going to be a white Christmas in Big Bear. Let Big E stay up late to watch the beginning of the storm. Can't wait to play in the snow tomorrow.

Wild Lights

Over a million lights and Santa too. A great holiday display at the Living Desert.

Indian Wells Villas

Heidi put on a great holiday event with the scouts. Glad we got to be there too.

Landau 3rd grade

Holiday craft night was a success!
