a winter weekend

We spent a fantastic weekend at the Gagnon Big Bear Cabin.  The snowy weather made it a challenge to get up the mountain, but once we arrived it was absolutely gorgeous.  Definitely a wonderful taste of the winter season for us SoCal residents.

Over the course of our 3-night getaway, we were blessed with the company of several wonderful friends and their little ones as well.  It was so much fun to see the toddlers and babies playing together!  Needless to say, Dominic was exhausted at the end of each day...


Dominic's expression in seeing snow for the first time.  Priceless!

Having too much fun!!


We woke up after a storm with no running water.  Robyn decided to boil some snow to make coffee...
