Snow fun!!!!

We had a great snow during Christmas break with Dad and Susie here! The kids enjoyed sledding and we are looking forward to sledding the next snow too!

Our sled run started out with the little hill you see...then as the snow was packed down the sled run continued across our yard and then down the neighbors big hill! Here are Jacob and Michael enjoying a ride!

Shoney absolutely loves the snow! She was hilarious when she'd lose her ball in the snow, sniff it out and find it, then get a mouth/nose full of snow getting the ball!

Megan turned into a sledding queen! She went from wanting to go down on our lap to going down a little bit to steering and making the whole sled run as far as she could before putting her feet down (to avoid the creek!)

Emily also enjoyed sledding! The first day she went down the little hill with no problems...the second day we didn't realize how slick the snow had gotten, pushed her down the little hill like before but this time she kept going and going...heading straight for the wood pile but somehow turned her sled perfectly to avoid it and stop!

Shoney got into the action too! Jon, Laura and another friend with her children came over to sled and we had a blast!

My crazy dad enjoyed trying all kinds of sleds (barrel, swimming pool, rocking horse, and more!). This is the before picture of the barrel!

This is the after picture! Unfortunately for the barrel it gave out and landed dad in the snow! Unfortunately the rocking horse picture/video didn't take because that one was hilarious as well!
