just when we thought spring had sprung...we got @ a foot of snow on friday into saturday. so of course on saturday afternoon we set out & built a 5 foot snowmommy (ryan's idea! i swear!...i know..he's a mama's boy! lol!!)...she's keeping warm w/ my orange fleece scarf & we made her a snowball skirt....her eyes are a little sunken now...quite appropriate! ;)
then on sunday mike took the kids out on the back hill for sleigh riding....but the resourceful little buggers figured out that the surface was slick, almost icy....so rather than drag a sled up & down, they just threw themselves down the hill & rode on their snowsuits....mike must have taken 500 pictures (thank god for the 2 GB card!)...& there are plenty of crash pics. mike finally dug a landing strip so they would stop flying into the little fence.
good times....being a kid...playing....i'm enjoying every last little teeny bit...
i love how ryan & kelly are holding hands...too freakin' cute! they are big into telling each other...hey ry, you know you are my very best friend. yeah kel-wee, you're my best friend too. and kate...and i guess you have noticed the tater's absence in these pics....she's not too fond of the snow...
so happy first day of spring!

That DOES look like so much fun!! But it also looks a little bit cold (she says while wearing shorts and thongs in Aus). Gotta love those cute little hats and matching mittens holding hands - so adorable.
Those sunken eyes are a bit scary mum.
Love, P.
