Fun in the Snow!

 Micah is giving them a push on the "bunny hill."
 Micah - King of the Rock!
 Caleb loves the real deal....a snow cone or in this case, a "snow mitten."
 Ben...he's quite the helper with the shovel.
 Hannah catching some sunshine.
 Caleb, just before he heads down the big hill
 Micah taking Hannah down the hill.

 She's a little shaken as they veered off the course a bit. Thankfully, no blood or bumps. These brothers certainly toughen her up a bit.
Caleb went down at least a half dozen times or more. He loved it!

9 years!

Happy Anniversary to my best friend and father to our children!

Sliding Hill!


The kids and I have been SO excited for snow. Why might you ask? Because of this thing called "The Hill" on our property. The first photo is of me before going down it. The second photo is of my one sled track after coming down it. All I can say...."AWESOME!"

Here the boys are enjoying the sliding fun on Dec. 13th

Here's a picture of the kids this summer on it. Just so you can get the feel for its steepness.
