Snowed in...

Yesterday we were supposed to go to Soldier Hollow with my family + cousins and aunts and uncles and go tubing. Well, it snowed so much that Provo canyon closed and we weren't able to go. So instead, we spent the morning playing in the snow at home with the neighbors and then we headed over to my mom's house to have lunch which lasted long after dinner. It was a nice snowed in kind of day.

LucyThe kids built a snow fort in our driveway.Here are the cousins at grandma's house.Bronnson was very sweet to Emma and took her on the four wheeler around my mom's backyard. Pleasant Grove got about 8" of snow yesterday. Her yard looked so pretty. Today, Brent helped Emma build an igloo. She was out in the snow at 10:00 am and didn't come in until 4:00 pm. The kid loves the snow. After all the neighbor kids have gone inside, she is still out there building and playing.

I don't know about the rest of you but I LOVE Utah winter. I love shoveling the walks and bundling up in warm clothes. Last night after the kids were in bed I took Walter out for a slippery walk around the neighborhood and then stayed outside until about 10:00 pm. playing in the snow with Brent. So far we are having a great Christmas Vacation!

I love the pictures. The black and white ones are awesome. Goes to show you we don't need the mountains to have fun in the snow. Just go outside.
