Washington Snow.

In January, we got the chance to visit the states for the first time since coming to Korea.  We spent a wonderful week in Utah, visiting most of our family and friends.  Then we spent a few days in Washington state with Ben's sister and her family.  My first visit to Washington was met with the worst snowstorm in 50 years.  We took advantage and spent almost everyday playing in the snow!

First, we visited Mt. Rainier:

Ben got muddy drinking from a mountain spring.  

And, of course, we had to have a snowball fight!

A couple days later, we found a local little hill with some sledding potential.  Uncle Ben worked hard to make it super slick.

We had a wonderful trip, though we don't have many pictures to show for it.  It was great to see our family and friends!
