Snow Day

I love the first few snows of the winter, especially if it stays warm enough that you can stand to be outside (preferrably 30 degrees +).  We have a great hill in the backyard that we all love to sled down. I also think the kids like to play outside because they know they get hot chocolate with lots of marshmellow cream once we get back inside!

It was so pretty outside. I love the way the trees look in the snow - at least at first!

Macy was evidently dehydrated since she kept eating the snow.

Ben took a little snow in the face on this one. As I got down to him he was kind of crying/whining because he was cold and had snow in his face and was stuck in his sled. When he looked up and saw the camera in my hand he immediately said, "cheese". I cracked up!!

Check out Chad's face in this picture. He looks diabolical. Ben's laughing - he doesn't know what's coming!
