Winter Wonderland

The kids have been waiting for it to be cold enough for the snow to stay on the ground. Well, they don't have to wait any longer. It's cold and the snow is here to stay! The Cogbill and Thompson cousins came to visit and were just in time for a couple of really big snow storms. They had plenty of snow to play in! They loved playing in the backyard and then going sledding down the hill at the park. I don't have any pictures, but the adults went sledding too. We had a blast racing down the hill!

These crazy cousins had so much fun in the snow!

Kynlee made one of the largest snowballs!

Karley made a fort under her soccer nets. Grace and Kenzie liked being in it too.

This is a video of Matthew jumping a picnic table on his sled. Pretty cool!

Matt doing the dirty work and shoveling the snow off the driveway. That's a lot of snow!

This is the biggest, widest snowman I've ever seen. He's in our neighborhood. The sign he's holding says, "Bur! It's cold, give me hot cocoa." I'd have to agree that it is cold and hot chocolate is exactly what warms us up. We have had tons of it!
