Yosemite Winter Club Snow Ball

This past weekend the Yosemite Winter Club had it's annual Snow Ball at the Wawona Hotel (which Brian and I think looks like a quainter version of the main hotel from Dirty Dancing). Anyway, we had such a good time. Almost all of our friends belong to Winter Club so we had quite the evening. We ate a wonderful meal and then danced the night away. I even learned to swing dance a bit from a friend of ours. It was a hoot!

It snowed while we were eating dinner and then while we were dancing and then later around midnightish it was still snowing - very beautiful we all thought. The next morning when we woke up, we found out that the road mountain road that takes us home was closed. In fact all the roads into the valley at that point were closed. So we called our very sweet 16 year old babysitter and told her we would be home later than expected. They finally opened one of the other roads and we had to drive all the way around (3 hours) to get back. It was fun and we knew the kids were having fun as well. Jordin (our sitter) had taken the kids outside to play in the ridiculously deep snow.

All in all we had an absolutely wonderful time. I got to wear my beautiful red dress from my bestest friend's wedding, again - Thank you Manda for your wonderful taste!!! What a great time!!!
