Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!!

We got MORE snow here. The closest town total I could find was 29.5 inches!!!! That is a LOT of snow! We had fun playing in the snow...but are not hesitant to say we have only 3 more northern winters after this one!
Kyle enjoyed playing a bit more this time...but after taking his gloves off (after repeated suggestions to keep them on) he got a bit cold! It was also quite challenging for him (and me) to walk in the high snow! The snow crept into his boots and the fun was over! Daddy quickly rescued him and warmed him up with some warm water and hugs!
While outside, he played with his new sled from Marybeth..thanks Marybeth! We didn't make it to slide down a big hill...just in the driveway and street. It is great snow for making a snowman....maybe we will venture out today again...

Looks tough to walk in!

Colin was the first to venture out to the snow covered swings!

Big snowball!

Fun on the sled!

Check out how high the snow is on Dave's leg...this isn't drift snow or shoveled snow piled up...just plain old snowfall!

The little helper!

Kyle's birthday, Atlanta girls trip and fun days!

Kyle plays baseball at his Gymboree party Kyle made a choo choo train in our kitchen. Elizabeth was a passenger in the side car on the floor!

Elizabeth and I went to Atlanta for a girls weekend while Dave and Kyle stayed home for a boys weekend. I got to stay home with mom and dad, see carrie, and even spent a night at the Ritz with Lacey and Susan. It was great to go shopping with the girls. Elizabeth got some one on two attention at Papa and Grandma Carol's house while I was away!

Kyle works on his abs!

And shows off his huge biceps while sucking on a lollypop!
