Snow Day!!

Well we were forecasted for a HUGE storm followed by "arctic" cold.... we did get about 4 inches of snow but I don't think I'd call that "huge". As far as the cold, it is already here and supposed to get worse. Luckily the wind and the cold hit after the kids spent most of the day playing in the fresh snow. They had a great time, Little Man had never gone sledding before, and he absolutely loved it! He actually had a huge fit at the end of the day because he didn't want to come inside. The benefits of living on a mountain are definitely great sledding hills. Here's Timber "helping" Big Sis & Little Man get their start. And yes, this is the same picture I now have on the header of my blog AND the same picture I am planning to use for our yet-to-be-ordered-much-less-addressed Christmas cards - but isn't it cute? Here's Little Man in action heading down the hill...

And here's our newest addition looking adorable...

And finally, Big Sis looking worn out after another trek up the hill....


After Round 1 of sledding the kids came in for some Hot Cocoa - which Little Man adores - as evidenced by this photo:

And finally, to wrap up our fun-filled day the kids and I made cookies. I showed them how to roll the dough into little balls and then roll the balls in the powdered sugar, which Baby Sis adores - as evidenced by these photos...
Looks like good clean fun, right?

"Look Sis, this is how you roll them in the powdered sugar..."

"Yum, powdered sugar is good!"

"Reaaaaallly Gooood!!!"


Okay, I know that this is an extra long post today with an excessive amount of photos, but it's my blog - right? I love showing off my kiddos!
