Shenandoah Crossings

We had a fun get away this weekend. We stayed in a cabin at Shenandoah Crossings. We had fun in the indoor pool. Brennan had his first swimming experience and he loved it! Mason was a bit shy of the water at first, but ended up having a good time.


Ben and Rob playing tether ball. Notice the puddles; the rain kept us from doing some activities such as horseback riding. However, we still managed to get in some outdoor time. We played miniature golf even though some of the holes became "water" holes!



Rick and Blake at the playground. Mason loved the many slides!


Our first night there I looked out the cabin window and saw this pure white deer! I thought it was a goat at first! There were other deer around but they blended right into the trees.

Fun in the Snow!












We received about a foot of snow yesterday and this morning. Rob and I both got the day off as we were pretty much snowed in! We live on a back road which is pretty much last priority for plowing. It was fun to spend some time in the snow as this much snow is a rare occurrence around here.
We took Mason out to play in the snow while Brennan slept this morning. Mason thought it was hilarious to see me making snow angels and throwing snow balls. We had fun until Mason’s gloves got wet and his little hands were frozen.
Late in the afternoon we drove to a park and met the Capozella’s and some of the other Chiovaro’s. Mason had his first experience sledding down a hill. He had a great time! Brennan was a great observer, he never made a peep. Mason let us know when it was time to go. He marched over to Rob and said “I am getting too cold” and then turned around and headed to the car! It was a fun day!
