New Years in the Snow
It had been over a year and a half since we’d gone to visit Grandma and play in the snow. We just purchased a new four wheel drive SUV and I was itching to get us stuck somewhere and see just how good it really works… so off to the mountains we went for a fun New Years in the Snow. I’m not the kind of guy who just runs out and buys something when we have a trip… so I rigged up the lap top so the kids could watch “Magic School Bus” for a portion of the 4 hour journey. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more, the kids or my wife? She was singing along and having just as much fun.
My little ones are growing up so fast! I can’t believe we let them go down the sledding hill on their own… it was so funny to watch. My son had this uncanny ability to do down the first hill, keep going, and crest over the second hill until he was completley out of sight. I would rush down on a sled to make sure he was ok and I’d hear him laughing at saying how he was the only one who goes over the second hill. My children’s laughs are contagious and I couldn’t help but chuckle as well.
Oh… and on one photo of my wife and kids on a sled…. there are actually 4 of them on there! Yep… my wife is 25 weeks along as of today and we found out a little while back it’s a boy! I bet you didn’t know they made 4 man sleds like that did ya?

I love solving problems and creating something from nothing.
