The First Snow Fall

Our plan was to go the the Mall of America but when we woke up on Saturday, the ground was covered in snow! The kids didn't miss a beat.
McKenna is gearing up. It appears that she is missing a few essential items of clothing.
Hunter's ready

There we go. Now we are ready for some serious snow play.

The kids with the snow slinger



We have the perfect size hill in the backyard. RJ blew up the big innertube and Hunter heaved it up the hill.

RJ got out there and pushed them down the hill. He was a trooper and spent at least 2 hours rolling around in the snow with the kids. What a good dad!

I joined the family to build a snowman. The kids faces were bright red because they had been eating the snow. I warned them the second day that our backyard is also the neighborhood potty for the neighborhood dogs. I hope that deters them from eating it!
