First trip to the snow this season

Yesterday we headed off to Big Bear with our closest friends to go tubing. We had a great time! This year the dads had to do all the work because we had one mommy who is scared of heights, I am still recovering from my broken wrist, and the other two are pregnant! I just love those girlfriends of mine so much!
