Fun trip to the Mountain!

We went to Government on January 31st with our friends the Martins and their kids Gavin and Grant and then Dave and James (from Rocking Horse) came as well.  We all met up at Government Camp at around 10:30 and then hit a nearby hill.  The kids loved playing in the snow and it was piled high on the sides of the road almost 7-8 feet.  It had snowed the night before so there was fresh powder every where and it was about 30 degrees so it wasn't too cold.  Both kids had a blast sledding again.  Olivia loved it and kept asking to go fast and laughed the whole way down.  Brandon was kind of crazy and went in circles and backwards.  The kids had a lot of fun together too and played well together.  At around 12:15 PM, the kids were getting cold and hungry so we left our hill and went into town some ways to the Mt. Hood Brewery where we had some yummy food and some yummy brews made locally.  It was a really fun way to end a fun day!  Sean and I commented that we will have to go to the mountain next year for sure overnight since it was such a hit with the kids.
