.snow and hard floors.

With the crappy weather outside my window today, I thought perhaps would be a good time to lay some pictures down from this past weekend. It was Youth Conference in our ward...that's right Youth Conference. We like to go against the norm in our ward...and it paid off fabulously this year. We spent the weekend up at Aspen Grove above Sundance and it was bEaUtiFUl!!


The lodge had these fabulous common rooms with huge decks on the back that looked out into the winter wonderland.

The kids were taking it all in before dinner.


Apparently kids eat their salad and ice cream all at the same time. Yummy!!


I didn't get too many photos of the team building activities, seeing as I was participating. But here is one of my group and our TaLL freestanding tower.

After our team building activities we headed to bed...where I promptly did not fall asleep. I dearly miss those days where I could sleep anywhere and in any position. One night didn't kill me, but I've been paying for it since.

Here the kids are learning a little bit about standards.


...and quilting quilts for Haiti.

Onto the snow... Roy and Bro. Morgan cross country skiing (I'm sure Bro. M made it some type of competition)

Some of the snowshoeing group (McKenna, B. Pelligrino, Makayla, Emma, and B)

Lynsay and Emma were my morning companions. We saw....lots of SNoW (go figure). Here they are on the roof of a cabin.

We did a lot of jumping.

It's great having Roy in Young Mens. I get to hang out with the kid all the time in our callings!

Emma and I doing a little tromping (pictures by Lyns)

More jumping
Miss Emma and I having a fabulously wonderful time in the snow. Did I mention there was a lot of it. So beautiful!
I think after this weekend though, I'm officially ready for spring to make it's way into UT.

Great pictures, Beth. Maybe we should do a family reunion in the winter for a better price? Love Mom
