Snow Storm 2017

We got snow!!!!!

Friday night it started snowing and Saturday morning when we woke up it was a winter wonderland!  We ended up getting about 4.5" and the kids couldn't wait to get to the hill to go sledding!  We were the first ones out there and got some good tracks going down the hill and then after a while all the neighborhood kids came out and we all had a great time!

Over the past few days there has been lots of sledding, snowball fights, hot chocolate, cookies, big breakfasts and laundry!

Saturday






The boys' snowball fort






This kid is a snow-loving kid!! He stayed out for hours upon
hours at a time! 


Snow cream for these two!  Food is their common ground:)

Troll cookies - aren't they cute!?!







Sunday

S had her first sleepover at a friend's house, Shelby Kate, last night so she was not around for the sledding fun on Sunday morning!  And, really, she slept NONE so she wasn't much fun to be around the rest of the day!

This was a video that S used Shelby's iPod to send to Shelby's dad at about 1am!!  Thankfully his phone was off and he didn't get it until the morning.  But, hilarious!!



But, C... that kid was up and ready to go!  He stayed out and played ALL.DAY.LONG!!!

Early morning trip to the sledding hill
Climbing up the hill is tiring!




Snowball fight!

More snowball fights with the neighbors!

Today (Monday)

School was of course cancelled today!  The kids were excited to get out early and enjoy some more sledding in the yard!


We finished off the box of hot chocolate today!:)
Although school is also cancelled tomorrow, I think the excitement is wearing off now... I'm definitely over it now!
