Snow!!

(View from the attic space of our new house.)
We woke up on Sunday morning to lots and lot of snow!! The ground was covered and it snowed most of the day...we couldn't believe it! We bundled up and went outside to build a snowman and play in the snow with our neighbors. Ronan and I made this little snowman. He was ready to play, so he didn't have the patience to make a big snowman (: (He ended up knocking it down shortly after it was finished anyways...oh well) Griffin was very interested in the snow...he looked so cute in his over sized snow gear (:
Ronan's buddy Konner brought out two sleds to play with, and there was a perfect little hill between our houses to sled on. Here's Konner giving Ronan a little push...
The kids had a blast! Griffin even tried out the sled...and he loved it (: You could tell he wanted to do everything that the big kids were doing.
Konner and Ronan sledding at the same time.
After naps we headed back outside and played with our friends April, Miles, and Julian (also neighbors).
Ronan had the idea that he wanted to snowboard, so Josh got out a boogie board for him to try. He was a natural! He figured out how to balance on the board and that kept him entertained for hours.

Here's Josh sledding with both boys. They got pretty creative (and daring)...I'll post some videos later (:
Josh and Griffin
And here is baby Julian. His eyes matched his fleece and the snow...he is so sweet (:
I took these pictures from the bottom of the hill where we were sledding.

That's great that you have a fun place to sled right by your house. The snow was such a nice surprise! Glad that you guys enjoyed it too! :)
