Winter Snows in Yosemite

Last week we finally got our first "real" snow of the season. It may have also been our last. But we took every opportunity to help Micah enjoy the snow (and Mommy a little, too). I am trying my best to raise Micah to be a "true" Johnson. I'm teaching him to identify falling snowflakes & get excited about the beautiful blanket of white outside.

So in true "Johnson Style" I loaded Micah up in the family car & took him up to the park to explore the snow (we only had 4" they had 18"). Micah had a blast learning the joys of snowballs & hiking around in the snow.

I really hope it snows again before the weather changes, although if todays temps are any indication (it was 75 degrees & supposed to be in the 80's this weekend) I have pretty low hopes.
