02.27.2011: Snow Day in Phoenix

Sunday, I woke up not feeling too great....definitely a cold coming on from the change in temps outside. We spent most of the day laying around the house, me taking cold meds. Then we heard on the news that it had snowed in Cave Creek....which is literally a 15 min drive from our house. So, Vince wanted to take a little road trip late in the afternoon....mostly just to get out of the house. It had been freezing all morning, and rained all night the night before. So, we took a drive....and actually found some amazing snow!!! It was everywhere!!! So, we drove to this little golf course that was closed due to all the snow on it....parked on the side of the road...climbed thru the fence.....walked around in it...threw some snowballs at each other, and even built a little snowman!! We even brought the little guy home with us....he didn't make it all the way, but he sure had a great ride!!! :)
See the golf pin at the top of the hill??

We weren't the only ones! It was actually a lot more snow than I expected....I thought we would just see some patches from the road...had no idea it was going to be this much!! Our little buddy!!
Vince and his new friend...
Cruising in style...loving the view!
We weren't out there long, but what a GREAT treat for us!!! It was late and the sun was about to go down...but we were soooo glad it we decided to go for a little drive. Wished we could have had all the kids with us....but it was too late to try to round them up. Boooo :(
