Big Snow Storm! 2/12/10-2/13/10

We finally got enough snow to play in. The girls were so excited that they could actually play in it. The funny thing is the last few years when we have had a snow storm my sister, Jennifer, has been out of town and her kids have been down here staying with me and my mom. It has been great to have it happen that way because the cousins get to enjoy the snow together. This time we got several inches of snow and it was the perfect kind of snow.





The kids and adults were having a great time sledding down the hill.



I was also babysitting Jackson and Drake while Justin and Kristina were on a date so it was really fun to have them over to play in the snow. They were both so excited. The neighbors all started coming out and a huge snowball fight broke out. Andy was having a great time fighting with all the guys. After that Andy decided he wanted to make a toilet out of the snow. Only Andy and his brothers would think of making a TOILET instead of a snowman.



The next morning Grandma and Grandpa and the kids came back over to play. We had a fun time sledding down the side of the house. I had to take some funny pictures of Andy with his toilet.



Grandma decided that this year we needed to make a real snowman, "Idaho style". This snow man was over 6ft. tall. It turned out really cute. It took several guys to lift the snowballs up. It was really heavy.

The kids, Grandma and I built two snow forts so that we could have a snowball fight. IT was pretty fun. Ethan looks forward to the huge hill that is behind the neighbors house that we have been sliding down the last few years. Him and Casey went down several times. We had a really fun time playing with friends and family. We love the snow.
