Snow Day!!!

What a great suprise when Russell came home yesterday morning and told me that his work day was cancelled because of the rain! We decided to take the kids up to the snow since they have never played in it before. After I got done working we rounded up as many snow clothes that we could and headed north with Russells friend Kobe and his family and Russells parents. We went up to Young Road which is right by Roosevelt Lake and we found tons of snow! It actually snowed the whole time we were up there! Maggie loved it and would have stayed there all night and Lucas on the other hand, had fun but it was short lived because he couldn't walk very easy in it. We all stayed warm and dry and that is probably why it was such a success!

This is our view on the way up which was only about an 45 min. outside of the valley


You can see Russells happy face as we were driving up

Thankfully Maggie had a short nap before we got there which helped her have more energy for playing in the snow

Grandpa Kennedy and the kids

Yes that is my SON Lucas.....he has no idea that he's wearing pink and purple or Dora mittens

maybe he does have an idea.....poor kid, the suit fit so he had to wear it

Maggie was all hodge-podged together but she kept warm and dry!


I love that my mother in law is such a kid at heart....she had a snowball fight with Russell


These are our friends Kobe and Kristin and one of their daughters April

Lucas loved getting pulled on the sled by Grandpa


After Maggie was all done playing she was a thirsty girl! Obviously her face was a little chilly

Lucas was done about 20min or so before Maggie and everyone else so I had to entertain him in the truck while we waited to go.
