More FUN in the Snow...

The snow started to fall again pretty good on Monday night and of course the kids were out rolling snow balls trying to make a fort. The begged me to come out and help when the snowballs got to big to push. I grumbled but headed out. I had a brilliant idea to make a sled ramp instead, because the fort idea has already been done :) So I recruited Dustin off the couch, because my sled ramp engineering skills are not good, and we all went to work. After it was finished, Dustin and I even gave it a try...

O Christmas Tree...

Time got away from us this year and we weren't able to go out searching and chopping our Christmas Tree. (this year's story was a little boring) But, what we did do was see a $20 tree lot on the way back from picking the kids up at Grandpa and Grandmas, stopped there, crawled out of the truck while it was pouring rain, had the nice tree guy pick up the first tree we spotted, he spun it around to see if it was to our likeing, and it was :) so we paid the nice tree guy $20 and he loaded it in the back of the truck, and within 5 minutes of getting out of the truck we were happily on our way home with this year's choosen Christmas tree. It was QUICK and EASY!

So here we are decorating our 5 minute tree...

...ummmm Dustin is SUPER happy to be a part of this big event

SNOW DAY, continues...

I guess the FUN never stopped today. As soon as Dustin got home they started working on making this AWESOME snow fort. It took them several hours but the kids where in heaven Lexi even made a little pillow inside and hung out till I finally called her in for dinner 45 minutes later. Dustin says that kind of snow doesn't come around very often, he remembers only one time him and his Dad making a snow fort as a kid :)Perfect Day!!!
