The Ultimate Weekend

There have been a few times in my life where I have been forced to stop everything and thank God for the family that he's given me. This past week up in Mammoth was one of those times. I had so much fun watching my boys enjoy the mountains, seeing Kristen enjoy time away and seeing Tyler get bigger each day. We have a ton of pics from the week and I'm sure Kristen will post some of them later today, I just wanted to pick out some of the shots that reminded me of how much fun it is to be a dad.



This picture is at Sherwin Creek--A spot quickly emerging as a Larson tradition. It's a short hike to a creek surrounded by lush green trees. There aren't very many people that know about it or use it so we always have it to ourselves. We let the boys throw rocks into the creek for about an hour.













These next 2 pics are on the mountain. One of the coolest things this year, Mammoth made it so you could drive up the mountain on certain "runs". So we turned up the dirt road and drove back past chair 12 over to chair 13 and 14 (my favorite parts of the mountain so it was fun to see it all without snow). Back near chair 13 (background of full fam pic) was a crystal clear lake The boys threw rocks and sticks into the water for about an hour and a half. Again, nobody there, we had the place to ourselves. Great day!
