Snowfest 2008

It was a good snowfest this year! I had forgotten how much fun snowing is...and what a sled trail nazi I am. I kind of got into it with some kid that kept WALKING up our sled trail...I actually said "DUDE stop walking up our trail!" Hubby laughed at me for saying dude. But doesn't he know that if you walk where you are supposed to go down it interferes with the speed and velocity at which you go down the hill--sheesh, doesn't her have parents that teach him these correct principles in life. We worked for a good hour on making perfect---slick and fast with a few good turns and bumps...it was awesome and if I would have had a tow rope to get me up the hill again we would have been there all day. It was beautiful and it made me feel like a kid again! I want to go back just with Tait and I. Can you imagine the kind of trail we would have then--I will dream of it tonight...
Hubby and Quatro...quatro was NOT thrilled with is first snowfest...it probably had something to do with the fact that he couldn't move any of his limbs. It gave new meaning to The Christmas Story "I can't put my arms down!" scene, poor baby.

Uno decided fort his picture that she wanted to be looking away wistfully...her words not mine. Sometimes I wonder where she gets is and then I remember...

Snow Angel? most of the time

Tres's first time seeing snow...she looks happy yes?...you should have seen her first experience with snow in her gloves...it was not pretty.

This is a random picture but it shows my fat braid...one of two...I blame my weight on my hair it has got to weigh at least 10 lbs, at least that is what I tell myself. Oh and if you are wearing clothes when you weigh yourself you get to take off 3 lbs...if you are wearing jeans 5lbs. Delusionally glorius idea. BETHY OUT

Ah, you're back. I love reading your posts. I agree on the poundage stuff though. Every time I go to the doctor when I'm pregnant, I make sure I wear shoes that I can slip on and off really fast. Shoes can make a big difference, and I don't want to get a lecture from Dr. unnecessarily. Next time you want another snow fest, just jump in the minivan, and drive a couple thousand miles up to Seattle. We'll show you a good time.

Looks like a fun snow day. Snow IS fun! My kids can't get enough of it. I am impressed that you have hats, gloves, snowbibs, etc. for everyone! Where did you drive to go sledding? Hopefully you didn't hit any trees coming down the hills...looks like there were lots 'o trees!?? :)

Definitely on the hair weight - your hair is so thick! Snow is so fun! Evan says he doesn't want to move to New Orleans if there isn't any of it. I, on the other hand, am delighted by the prospect of warm winters! Snow is fun to visit!
