Nikko giving the air "high five"... Kai not looking, and their parents being silly... |
The kiddos enjoying a special hot chocolate in the morning after they ate their breakfast. |
we drove in to Badger pass for some snowplay... |
unfortunately the kiddos didn't want to get in the sled, and weren't cooperating... |
so after approx 100 yards, we took a lunch break. And I went on a quick 30 min sprint on my skate skis. |
and made it back to make a snow man! |
stopped at tunnel view on the way down to the valley so Nikko could soar! |
And quickly noticed the crowds and the cars lined up along the way waiting to catch a glimpse of the firefall... what a zoo... |
Hey... I got a good idea... let's go to the most beautiful place in the world... sit around for 6 hours and wait to catch a glimpse of the most photographed phenomenon... FOLKS... walk around. Enjoy NATURE. Not your camera... sheesh... yup... you just heard it here... forget your camera and enjoy it... |
Yosemite Falls with it's huge snow mound at the base... |
site of our wedding... |
Kai and I skated around for an hour or so. That was really fun. We did see an older lady fall and probably got a concussion... I think folks should definitely wear helmets ice skating. Much more so than skiing... |
On our way back, we had good timing as the traffic was insane... |
... pretty cool... |
firefalls |

Crazyness... |
The next morning, we decided to hike out to Lower Yosemite Falls... |
Deer! |
Kiddos! |
Sleeping human! |
With a bobcat slowly approaching! |
Basking in the sun... |
The kiddos were singing Raffi the whole way home... |
nice sunset.. |
