Cold Stone Creamery

Hot tubbing!

This was us in the hot tub on the porch of our rental house. It was great to sit in it and look out at the snow covered landscape.

Where's our car?

This was a picture of our car when we returned after the lighting festival. It had snowed a bit while were in town.

Cold enough?

The water froze as it was cascading down leaving beautiful landscape.

Road?

Road? Or lack there of? This was the road to our cabin. It was a beautiful drive.

Pretty Landscape

Our rental house was near this river. It was really pretty.

Rental House

This was our house we rented in Leavenworth. Hot tub on the porch. They had christmas lights up and inside a tree all decorated. It was great.

Santa!!

The boys with Santa clause. We just happened to catch him wandering up the street.

Leavenworth, WA

The first weekend in December, we rented a house in Leavenworth, WA and got away for the weekend. They have a big city wide lighting festival every weekend in Dec. They light the trees and then one by one all the buildings turn on their lights. It was a fun evening. The boys had a snowball fight in the street, they got to see Santa and just had a blast. It snowed pretty hard for a little while which was a special treat as it doesn't do that too often around here.
Here is us in front of some shops after the crowd disappeared.
