SNOW!

Our first snow of the '19-'20 winter came early--in November!  It turned out there were hardly any snows throughout the whole winter so I'm glad the kids could enjoy the ones they had!  

(Actually, after looking at these pictures I remembered that Clara did not join them on the first snow play!  She was happily reading books inside and did NOT want to come out. Ha!

One necessity of a snow fall is making and eating snow CREAM!  Yum!  The kids love to add sprinkles, chocolate syrup, sometimes chocolate chips and whipped topping if we have it.

After a different snow in January we made it out to go sledding as a family!  So thankful we got this chance!  I'm always up for one sledding trip/winter.  Ha!  What's so funny is that we always go sledding at this small hill near our house that we can walk to.  The kids have never been to an actually good sledding hill!  Somehow that doesn't matter, though, because their faces were glowing from the pure joy of it all.  Plus we had the added bonus of nobody whining that they were too tired to climb back up the hill!  😃 It's a win-win!

Haha!  David going down with his camera bag!
