We heard that it was coming but at the same time I was surprised. Snow!!! The kids were so excited. This is after the second snowfall but as soon as they saw the world was covered in white they were dressed in their snow gear and outside. The first thing they did was make snow angels.


Here they are being very creative and changing our steps into a slide.

It was a huge success!
After going down the step/slide for about an hour we decided to trek to the rec center and tackle a real hill. We trudged through the snow covered sidewalk and went sledding.
Sundee and I decided to go down together, Wow! We got pushed for the start and picked up speed, narrowly avoided a small girl halfway down, in our attempt to go around her we ended up backwards and headed for a tree. There was a lot of screaming and snow flying but we made it safely down to the bottom of the hill. I had totally forgotten how much FUN that is.
Then it was time to trek back home. A nice cup of hot chocolate and the day was complete.
