It is so stinkin' HOT!

i love California because of the weather and the fact that there is always something to do. we don't have to worry about snow storms or shoveling driveways or driving in ice and stuff like that. but this week, wow, has it been hot! i would welcome a snow storm on days like this.

since i do not possess the power to make it snow, maybe reminiscing on colder days will help. these pics were taken in january on a snowboarding trip to Big Bear. we had such a good time and it was sooo COLD!!! on our way up the mountain...

here we are posing with our boards.

this is me and my bestest friend, kaelia. we are pretty much on the same snowboarding skill level so i was really glad her and her hubby came with us. john goes way too fast for me! on this day he was teaching her son elijah how to snowboard. he did awesome!
