Lake Arrowhead {2015}

When Sarah was a baby we rented a cabin in Lake Arrowhead with hubby’s family.

IMG_0325Sarah has been talking about seeing snow for a couple weeks now, so hubby and I decided we would take a day trip on the first day of 2015 to see the snow. We once again headed to Lake Arrowhead (this time only with his mom) for a snow adventure.

Driving towards the mountain, the roads were empty and scenery was beautiful. We loved spotting the snow capped mountains.

IMG_4520It’s been freezing in So Cal (high 30’s to low 40’s) so we were expecting there to be a lot of snow.

Luckily we were right. There were 6 inches of fresh snow when we arrived!

IMG_4546The first thing Sarah wanted to do when she saw the snow was make a snow angel.

IMG_4536IMG_4527Hubby and Sarah attempted to make a snow man, but she was sad when she found out we didn’t have a carrot for his nose.IMG_4540Instead we threw snowballs at one another.

IMG_4606We couldn’t find a sled, but we had a back up plan. Hubby bought a container at Wal-Mart so that we could use the lid as a sled.

It didn’t work so well. Luckily the nice people near us asked if we wanted to borrow their sled.

We had lot’s of fun, but we were freezing! My Ugg boots were done.

IMG_4636We packed up and headed back home while watching the sunset.

IMG_4639My daughter who refuses to nap in her car seat actually took an hour long nap. Not only did she miss her nap earlier in the day, but she was wiped!IMG_4638 We were all pooped and happy to finally be at home.

Happy 2015 friends!
