Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Being as we only get snow MAYBE once a year, we tend to thoroughly enjoy ourselves when it does come. As you can tell... :)
Here, folks, we have the newest Olympic Redneck Bobsledding Team all the way from Mississippi!  (Yes, that's a boat.) And yes, we rode it all the way down the hill. Since it wouldn't budge with the normal "gimme a push", we all got out & pushed and jumped back in. Just like real bobsledders! haha

We actually convinced the mothers to ride down the hill in the sled! (which in all reality is a duck decoy hauler thingy for dragging behind a boat.) But hey! We found it on the side of the interstate & it makes for an AWESOME sled! :)

 Rednecking at it's finest...

ACTION SHOT!!  I (Sarah) am about to get WHOPPED by a snowball (that felt more like a baseball) right in the back of the head! Little observant me. :) Good shot, Dylan... Good shot.

How many Archies and Lairds does it take to build a pathetic looking snowman?! ;)
BJ and his "ice cream"
The snow was melting. And we were getting cold and hungry. So we decided to come inside and play Apples to Apples. (And BJ napped on the couch) :)
This is what your front door area looks like when 11 children come inside after romping through the snow... :)

  1. Looks like y'all had about as much fun as we did! :) We got a little snow last Friday and though we were supposed to have snow again this week, just got ice -- like, 2-3 inches of ice! I almost think that the ice was more fun! :) We went slippin' and slidin' down the road and had a great time. :)

    Looking forward to seeing you next week!

  2. Someone said we are supposed to get more snow this week too! (Like 6 to 8 inches?!) Not sure if it's true or not, but if it is, we will enjoy it! ;)
