Top of the Notch

We bought a groupon earlier in the winter in hopes of taking the scenic chairlift up to the top of Mt. Baldy to play in the snow.  Well, the snow never came.  But on Friday there was a Spring storm that rolled in and left about 3 inches of snow. So we packed up and headed to the Top of the Notch! It was very foggy and cloudy at the top but the sun did peek out every once and awhile.  The kids had a blast playing and we also enjoyed a yummy lunch at the lodge.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!  We enjoyed a very quiet day together.  The kids hunted for their baskets in the morning.  Then we dyed eggs and enjoyed the candy and gifts left by the Bunny.  The kids played all afternoon outside in the warmth.  We even enjoyed our dinner outside which was fun.      DSC_1064  Lots of goodies!DSC_1086 Easter outfitsDSC_1075 dying our eggsDSC_1074 DSC_1076 DSC_1081

Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse

Last night we stayed up to see the lunar eclipse.  It was beautiful to watch the moon turn orange.  So glad we had the chance to see that.  (The kids were sleeping soundly as this all happened)DSC_1004DSC_1020 DSC_1017
