SNOW DAY!

Today was the first official day that it snowed! It has snowed up here over the past few months but the snow has never really stayed around long enough for us to enjoy and play in. It was nice to have it not melt before mid morning or early afternoon like it does down in Southern Utah. This was a treat for us to actually have the opportunity to go out and enjoy it before it melted!!
It was fun to watch Kaleb get so excited to go outside and play. He went straight for the snow "shuzel" out in the garage and began shoveling away. After letting Kaleb shovel some of the snow on the lawn we headed to the park across the street to try out our little sled. Mark and Kaleb had a fun time trying to get the sled down the hill. We are going to need some more snow to make it work better but I don't doubt that we will getting more snow in the upcoming weeks!

Look at that enthusiastic smile!

Playing in the snow wouldn't be any fun with out being able to come inside and enjoy some warm cocoa afterwards!

We are so glad that you got to us your Shuzel and that you thought it was fun. I hope you still think it is fun later in the season. If not just send Kaleb out to shovel- hee hee.

We miss you.
