Wow! What a fun day we've had. Last night a storm came in and dumped a whole bunch of fluffy snow and we had fun playing in it all morning. We used buckets to make a snow fort and as I was helping Haley, I was thinking...."Who needs the beach?! We have all of this lovely snow to play with!" We were using the buckets the same way we would be using them on the beach to build sand castles. It was very enjoyable. We remember the days when we would have to drive up into the mountains for a snow day, so it's exciting for us to quickly get our snow gear on and simply step outside to enjoy the snow. Gene worked from home today since the roads were too dangerous to drive on, so during a break, we took the girls to the movies. Gene and the older girls saw 'National Treasure' and I took the little gals to see 'Alvin and the Chimpmunks'. Lots of fun! All in all, we had a fabulous snow day!! Yea for Snow!
This is our cool snowguy, a snowMAN would have 3 sections to him, but this Utah snow is so fluffy and powdery that it's super hard to even make a snowball, let alone a full-on 3 part snowman, so instead we made this cool snowguy, Lindsay called him "Whitey" 'cause he's white like the clouds. :)
Weeeeeeee! Sledding fun!
Jack the wonder snow-dog!

One amazing snow fort! We have lots more work to do before it's done!
Our wonderful "SnowGuy"

How fun! We haven't had a good snow storm yet, so my boys are feeling deprived. As long as I don't have to drive in it, I don't mind it actually.
Cute snowguy!
Wow! All you have to do is step outside. Who knew? :) Hey, did the older gals like National Treasure? We can't wait to see it. I don't thinks our older two will get to see it though. Have a great Christmas!
I liked your snowguy. Don't you love the snow!! It's so much fun!
Just rub it in about the south facing houses. Our house is probably the worst in the entire neighborhood. It never, ever sees the sun!
