Winter Wonderland

A few days ago, we headed south for Christmas.  Seems we will be leaving behind a White Christmas in Portland (it snowed the day we left, and snow is in the forecast for Christmas Day).  But, we got a parting gift in that it snowed pretty much the entire drive down through Oregon to California (approximately 5 hours).  And we made a stop at a rest area so the kids (ok, and Mom and Dad) could play in the snow for a bit.  I love having seasons!!!

Salem, OR

The rest stop near Seven Feathers, OR

She had just thrown a snow ball....No gloves!

Making a mini snowman

The snow was REALLY coming down!

She had been sick the day before; the snow boosted her spirits a bit.

Delight!

Just beautiful!

Peeeeerrrrrty

About 20 miles from the CA border, the sun was peeking through.
