The final full day of our trip we rented a van and drove up to Mt Rainier! I went there when I was a kid but we went to the campgrounds and picnic areas, never up very high. This time we went to Paradise Park which is up pretty high! I was not anticipating so much snow! In Seattle it was about 70 degrees that day so I was wearing flip flops! I felt pretty silly wearing them in the snow!

Leah was so excited to see snow again! |

This family from Texas has never seen anything like this before! |

It was really bright from the sun reflecting on the snow! |
Luckily this day the kids passed out on the car ride home since it was a long drive. And then I thought this pic was funny. On top of a snowy mountain in the morning and then eating popsicles in the sun if the afternoon. :-)

Silly kids! |
Our guests left the next morning. We had a really fun time with them. We can't wait until their next visit!
Wow the snow and mountains are gorgeous!
