Snow Days!

Wow! We were hit hard (as most of you were) with snow last week! Wonderful to not have to work for two days but we are officially at June 24th as our last day of school. Yikes!
It snowed so hard that the girls had a hard time posing and smiling for me.

Now that Taylor has the basketball bug, she's even shooting hoops in the snow!


It was snowing so hard and the neighborhood gang was over that we ended up having a fire, hot cocoa and girl scout cookies. Fun Times!

The kids worked really hard to roll the bottom ball of this snowman! The dad's ended up doing the other two. The kids were thrilled by the end result!


He's HUGE!


Even in the snow we have to take a trip to the marina!

The girls had no problem finding a place to sit! They didn't mind the snow at all!

We spotted these icicles and then quickly realized they were all around us- on the bird house, on the bottom of the kayaks- everywhere!


We all got the sledding bug....although I could hardly stand up the next morning :)

The girls had made a jump....lets just say that Dave went over the jump once and chose the smooth path for the rest of his trips :)


Maddie literally stayed outside morning, noon and night! She spent the majority of her time doing just this!

Her sister wasn't too far behind her...although she did take occassional breaks to build snow forts with the neighbors.

I love this picture. The three people I love most. Happy and beautiful.

Dave and I decided that after these 48 hours of non-stop fun in the snow that we could definately do a snow vacation somewhere- even though we prefer the sun! We had a blast sledding, going for walks, building snowmen and then cozying up at night in front of the fire!

I hadn't seen/heard anything from you on Facebook in a while so I went to go check on you and noticed you're not there? Did you give up on FB? I enjoyed keeping tabs on you that way. :) I hope everything is ok. Take care
