Snow...again?????

We got snow for the second time this year. Just weeks apart. When I told Ellie that it might snow she told me that was not going to happen because it only snows once a year here and we already had snow. She was excited to see that she was wrong. The girls made the most of it and made this snowman all by themselves.



They tried sledding









The Lucas boys made this snowman. It even has a hat.

Circus

The circus came to town and after a day of playing in the snow we braved the roads to take the girls to the circus. They had a lot of fun. This was Ellie's first time going to the cirucs. She said her favorite thing was the girls that were shot out of the cannon. She also really liked the elephants.

Their bag of cotton candy came in these hats that light up.

We have snow

Last Friday it started snowing. The kids were so excited (and so was I). When I got the boys up from their nap they pointed out the window and I told them it was snow. They wanted to go out so bad. Connor kept saying "no" (he was trying to say snow) and pointing at the window. So I bundled them up and let them go see. I just love our once yearly snow fall.







Then, when we woke up Saturday there was enough snow to go sledding. Ellie was loving it.



We all went to the hill at the park in the Cedar Field neighborhood next to us. Ellie had so much fun!

Connor had lots of fun pointing and laughing as people went down the hill. He went down twice and Zander went down only once. He didn't like being out as much as he did on Friday. Zander would not even walk in the snow. He just stood wherever we put him.

Gracie slid down the hill with Connor. We let them go by themselves and they ended up going really fast. There was a creek at the bottom of the hill (which we did not know about). Thankfully they were going fast enough that they went right across it and landed on the other side. Poor Connor then fell out face first. I think he had fun though becuase he did go again. :)
