It was the warmest weekend of the winter, and where did we decide to go? Snowtubing, of course! We've had this weekend planned for so long, and the warm weather just added a little mud to our fun. We met five other families, including Jersey Baby, and Tatertown USA, at Wintergreen resort, near Charlottesville, VA.
After dropping Logan at Grandma's house Saturday morning, Dylan, Andrew and I set off down the highway for our little snowy adventure. And after getting a little side-tracked trying to find some restaurant called Pig Daddy's (thanks for nothing GPS) we arrived at our hotel. All 19 of us stayed at a hotel near the mountain, enjoying pizza, desserts, laughs, and many adult beverages poolside. The hotel even had a fancy little movie theatre and popcorn for all to enjoy. It was kid heaven, and no one had to vacuum at the end of the party!
Sunday morning we headed up the mountain for our very first snow tubing excursion. It was a little slushy and muddy. But the tubing hill, The Plunge, is more than three football fields long and we spent a glorious two hours acting like kids and connecting our tubes into trains to fly down the slopes.
Here we go!
Up the people mover to the top...
Logan would have loved it, and I really missed having him there. But he had a great time with Grandma Lynn and Grandpa Robby, with an abundance of fruit snacks, hugs, Wii Fit and Playdough.
We've decided this will be standing weekend adventure every winter. Good friends, great laughs. I'm ready to go again this weekend.
