We are truly living in a Winter Wonderland!!!
This winter it seems we have been buried in one storm after another. The first of the 8" storms arrived about a week ago. It was followed by a few light ones and then boom we were hit last night and today with yet another 8". Wow!!! It is quite an adventure trying to brave your way down the icy snow packed side streets. THANKS GOODNESS for traction control in the van. :)
I would say that I'm done with the white stuff and ready for spring...but we did have a lot of fun sledding at the nearby park. The highlight being hooking up "Midnight" & "Calick" to our sled and having them pull us through the snow. It was a blast!!! James thoroughly enjoy the dog sled while laying on his belly and holding the sled handles. Brendan didn't so much enjoy the dog sled ride and he did sledding down the "bunny slope" . Jessica thoroughly enjoyed the whole adventure and especially loved her solo rides down the hill.
Other News:
We celebrated Sean's 35th birthday with sledding, a "referee" pinata and sour cream lemon pie.
We all had a lot of fun with "DADDY", despite him aging. :)

Ah, yes, the snow storms. I went sledding on Monday too (for the first time!) and it was a lot of fun. :)

I must admit I don't miss the snow at ALL! It makes me smile to wear short sleeves in the middle of winter. (Why did we buy a house in Sanpete County??) However, the snow sure is pretty in your back yard!

Your adventures in the snow sound like fun!
