Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

We may have only gotten 2 inches of snow, but we sure made the best of it!  3 hours on Friday and 3 hours on Saturday.  Not sure who loves the snow more: Bailey or the kids!




 Her first snowman by herself.  Doesn't llok as thrilled as she really was!


 Tough cookie pulling the sled!














 The young man in the back is 6'2" to help put the snowmen in perspective!

Jamestown


 We had a great whirlwind weekend with Aunt Kendra and Uncle Jeff last weekend!  The kids loved taking them to Historic Jamestown for the day.  Aunt Dottie and Kelsey even joined us for the fun!   I am so glad that we are lucky enough to spend time with our extended family and create such great memories for Matthew and Katherine.  We have some other pictures of Uncle Jeff rip-sticking.  He put the rest of us to shame!  I will have to get those up soon!

Update

Matthew's team won their game on Sunday 5-1.  Matthew scored a goal!  He had some great footwork throughout the game.  Katherine had her first sleepover on Saturday and then came down with the flu on Sunday.  She is halfway through her Tamiflu and her fever has stayed under 100 today (knock on wood...it's only 2:00)  Hopefully she makes a full recovery before Saturday.  Aunt Kendra and Uncle Jeff are coming for a visit!

Snow Fun with the Family


 One of the fun things to come out of our trip back for Great-Grandma/Grandma's funeral was a chance to play in the snow (first of the year for my kiddos and maybe the only) with their cousin.  But it was also wonderful that they play in it in the yard of their Great-great grandmother's house and that Gramps got in on the fun!
