Ice is Better Than Snow

Isaac had a fun afternoon sledding on the icy  grass.  If he didn't steer just right he hit a few road blocks, but when he was on the right path he had a great ride.  Normally, the kids can just make it to the garden (the rectangle area of dirt), but the icy grass made for smooth sailing.

Snow Day

Today we all got to enjoy a day off from school.  The little ones had a great time sledding, help shovel the walk, making snow angels, and of course eating a little snow.  Isaac says it taste like sugar. 

First Day Of Spring

Last Saturday was the first day of spring, but Mother Nature played a terrible joke on us. Instead of running and playing on a beautiful spring like day the little monkeys were bundled up and playing in the snow! It was SO cold that we debated even letting them go out, but I hoped it would be the last snow until the winter.

Snowy Day Fun

Tuesday was a very snowy day here! It was a snow day for schools! We ended up with about 9 inches of snow. However, the most important part of this is that Isaac and Isabella had the opportunity to go out and play in the snow! They made snow angels, through snowballs, went sledding, and just played in the snow.

Decorating Sugar Cookies

The past two days have been snow days. Today it was even too cold to go out and play in the snow to Isaac's disappointment. We made cut out sugar cookies in the morning and decorated them after Isaac and Isabella woke up from afternoon naps.
