Wowza! What a day!

Our family makes the most out of the Saturdays I get to skip out on work. My 13 years of retail haven't given up very many. So Dustin decides he is going to buy a us tree permit and we will have our first official "we cut the sucker down ourselves" tree. But we also want to find some snow so we can make a day of it, playing in it, playing in the snow is a Rich Family favorite. We headed up with a pot full of chili and some saltines to meet the rest of the family. After a few arguments on which way to go, and a stop to chain up Lanes tires, we made it to a little spot with lots of snow. Then we played for 3 straight hours in the snow.....so so fun.

I swear Cole went up and down the hill 100 times. Alexis was sledding down so fast, she had a ton of big wipe-outs, she just got up, smiled, and headed up again. Someone even made a little ramp and they were cruising down and catching a little air.


As always prepare for picture OVERLOAD.....





The kids made homemade snow cones, a little "white" snow and a lot of crystal lit, YUMMY!


Lane brought the four wheeler and everyone got a ride. A few pictures of the Cole catching air of the jump.






















Dustin wanted to see if Cole could clear him. Yep he could!



Sled train, Grandpa Lanes idea.








Two happy kiddos, and a family Christmas tree cut down with love. We had such a good time, we are making it our new family tradition.
