Winter Sledding

Last weekend I had a big Regional Training with Usborne that I was attending. So Eric, being the awesome dad that he is took Friday off and spent both Friday and Saturday with the kids!!! And, what is winter without a day of sledding!!! They were even lucky enough to find some great snow left close by. Here are several pictures highlighting their fun day!

I am so glad they had a good time, but seriously Spring can come anytime now!!!! :-)

Snow Caves!

Last Friday night Eric took his 11 yr. old scouts on a smaller version of the Klondike! They dug snow caves and slept in them over night. Preston isn't quite old enough officially, but Eric let him go. They had a really fun time, and I know Preston loved spending time with his dad!

The next morning. Preston slept great!

Breakfast!
Goofing off before it was time to go home.
The next morning the boys climbed on top to see if they could cave in their caves. I don't think it worked.
Preston and Eric again! Two of my special boys! I'm glad you guys had a great time!

Sledding Fun!

I removed my old post of the slideshow because it was taking too much memory to run. Eric has been gone for several days and I am to stupid to figure out how to change it. So it has been deleted and here is a few of the stills!
Sorry to those who made comments, I love your comments, but it was driving me nuts!! :-)

Christmas Countdown-Day 21

More playing in the Snow!!!

All the other kids have snow stuff, but Cade didn't. I ended up getting him some snow bibs so he could really enjoy the snow with the others. There is a ton of it, and it has been still snowing all day.

I need to get pictures of the other kids. I don't think about it when they get home from school. I guess they played in it at school, and are tired of it for a while!

Christmas Countdown-Day 2o

Well, winter is officially here down in Sanpete County!!!

We have quite a large driveway, so it has taken us quite a bit of effort to keep it shoveled. Eric has been getting up at 5:30 just to have time to get it shoveled before he goes to work.

Just a few hours later, it was bad enough that I had to do it again!

Snow, snow, and more snow! Yeah, I am finally done. At least for now. :-)

I guess we don't have to keep wishing for a white Christmas!!

Christmas Countdown-Day 17

YEAH SNOW!!!

Cade has been dying to go outside. Well, this morning I bundled him all up so he could check out the snow! This is his first real winter to "play" in it, so he was so excited. He didn't want gloves on, and he wouldn't really go out in it, but maybe next time. He just loves being outside!!
