Snowed In

The kids had a snow days today. We got about three feet all in about 12 hours and it is still snowing . It was crazy. The kids were thrilled of course. The day started at 6:00 o'clock to listen for school closures then David had to started shoveling us out. We would normal use our ATV, but we sold it a couple of weeks ago with the other things we got rid of. David was out in it all day. This is our last snow fall. So the kids played outside all day. They came in a few times to warm up and have hot chocolate. then out again.
This picture of the kids is trying to stand in the snow. That's how deep it was.

So Beautiful!

This is how deep it was to get out to the Hot tub.
The snow was almost to the railing.

The kids love to go in the Hot Tub when there is snow. They love to run and to dare eachother things to do. This is one of the many things the kids are going to miss.
They were in twice today. The kids were playing like crazy. We are glad that it snowed before we moved. Today was so beautiful. We will miss these days.




It's Frosting Time

Every year since I was a little girl my family has frosted sugar cookies. Its always been a blast. In the last couple of years my Dad has become a little more into it. He frosted 10. That's 5 more from last year. They looked super good. I think having all the Grand kids makes all the difference. All the kids did a good job and there wasn't a big mess. Ya. We all had about 36 cookies to take home. But of course they are gone in a couple of days.



As you can see David, Josh and Micheal really got into it this year. Football was on. And Josh thinks he's to old to frost cookies. But they still had a great time together just seating there. Maybe next year.
