Snow Days!

IN THE BACKYARD

So my kids love the snow. I can barely keep there snow gear dry for the next day.
This is a snowman the kids built all by themselves. They even gathered the accessories on their own. Logan isn't too happy in this one as you can see, maybe its the pink boots he was forced to wear!
Happy in a swing.

CHILL'IN WITH THE WHOLE FAM
We went sledding up in Mt. Green near Chris's sister's place and then warmed up with hot cocoa.
Notice Jacob's bandaged forehead? He had a mishap with the road. Seems he did one of those cartoon sommersaults where he came to a halt head first, riding his belly and forehead with his feet over head sort of thing! We extracted a rock the size of a sunflower seed from his head!


This run was just before the roadrash incident.

WHO NEEDS A HILL!

I know the video is a little blurry but the little squeels coming from my little powder puffs are so cute! Chris pulled the kids behind the 4-wheeler around and around and around the neighborhood. They just couldn't get enough! You know, it's amazing how resiliant kids are to the cold; I think it was in the low 20's that day.

A clearer photo of my powder puffs!

A DAY ON THE FARM

Jacob has been asking for awhile, "When are we going to Great Grandpa's orange playground?" Well, we spent a whole day up there and this video shows what his favorite stunt is on the playground. Really I've thought you could just put a giant tent over everything and bring in the circus! You've got a trampoline, zipline, giant swing, swingset, slide, teetertotter, rings, selfpropelled airplanes and much more. Dear Grandpa Ashby fabricated this whole park and then painted it a bright orange, you can't miss it!

Wow, Lani, great post! You even included video clips! How fun to see the kids. Lana wishes she could be there to play in the snow with y'all. I'm so sad there wasn't any at Thanksgiving. Next year at Christmas though!

I was so excited about the first post that included video clips that I didn't take a moment to check out the other posts before commenting on this one. I have to say I'm extremely impressed at how much you updated! They are all awesome posts and I had a great time reading them!

Oh I miss the snow!!! What a fun time for the kids. Love the videos and pictures. Logan still cracks me up; I love him in the swing and of course he looks upset, he has to wear pink boots!
