Snow Fun!

We finally had our first good snow.  I guess I should say we are having it, since it is still currently snowing.  We are loving it!  We were outside yesterday afternoon and most of today.  And when we are inside, we are still looking outside.  It is so beautiful, peaceful, and freezing.  I am currently sitting on an electric blanket with another blanket over the top of me.  The low tonight is about 26 and we are suppose to get snow through Wednesday.  I just saw on the news that we should get 8-12 inches of snow on Wednesday.  It is so crazy!  Curtis and I both keep looking out the window in disbelief.




We have all been having a lot of fun sledding.  Yesterday Curtis and I tried going down the hill, just the 2 of us.  We told the boys to move aside at the bottom.  We came flying down the hill and whatever way we turned, Colby kept running towards us.  When we reached him we had to slow down and I grabbed him.  Colby looked at us and said "Don't worry, I caught you".

Sledding at the park.





The boys were exhausted from all of the sledding and needed a lift home. For some reason we have been exhausted too.


This morning Brayden was ready before the rest of us to go outside.  He went to put something away upstairs and was back in 5 minutes ready in his snow gear.  So he made a snowman while the rest of us got ready.  The snow is really soft and hard to build with.  So Brayden made a little snowman.  Which worked out well since all we had were baby carrots.


The boys love to eat the snow!  Yesterday Curtis gave them some to taste and now they are constantly asking. 


Today we went to the tennis court at the park and nobody had been in there since it started to snow.  Below is both of our boys licking the snow.  Don't worry it is just the top layer.  We stopped them before the licked the court.



Colby asked us to bury him in the snow.  So we did.  He is funny to watch in the snow.  He loves to just roll around in it.  He never gets straight out of a sled.  He has to roll out of it, and he usually keeps going.  He also spent a lot of time making Colby shadows, which are snow angels.


Snow snuggles!
