Before heading out this morning we stopped at the visitors center for the girls to be sworn in as Junior Park Rangers! They worked on their books and received their special pin :)
We were excited to get on the road to the top of the mountain in the park to see snow hopefully!!!
Miss Fran, a Park Ranger was doing the pledge with them!
This was a really neat thing for them :)
This was when she was about to announce them over the loud speaker!!
It is raining...there might be snow above us on the mountain?!!!
It started when we were on the way up...it was 39 degrees and we could see flakes...it was so cool and a first for the girls!!

We finally get some use out of our umbrellas :)
This was a huge delight for them!!
It was so beautiful and such a nice treat on our last day heading towards home!!

Happy, Happy, Happy Day :)
