The womenfolk traveled up to Leavenworth, WA over the weekend to experience the "Little Bavaria" of the NW. About a 5 hour drive that became almost 8 with the help of a snowstorm on the mountain pass. The icy windshield and loooong drive was worth it once we found ourselves pulling the girls on sleds through the town - with about 18 inches of recently fallen snow, Christmas lights everywhere, carolers in the town gazebo and people milling around the main street it was pretty darn festive.

The girls gave us a good five minutes between the time we got all their gear on and when they started complaining about "too much!" "too hot!" "mittens!!!".
Sledding into town. Target sleds = priceless.
