First Snow!

This morning we woke up to our first snow storm of the year!! The kids were thrilled to have school cancelled! Out here they cancel school if there is just a small amount of snow. There is only about 3-4 ", but thats enough. I finally went to the basement to unpack all the snow gear and the kids were ready for fun!! Here are the little ones having their first taste of the snow! Jalan and Britton having snowball fights!

look out Jalan! Here comes Britton!!
He's hiding!



WEEEEEE



So last night we had Family Home Evening and made Valentines for our relatives far away!! The kids had a blast and it was nice to focus on loved ones and love! Here are the finished products, yes, I uploaded them backward again.




Macee making hers! She just woke up and was looking like a homeless child, sorry.

The family working hard, in front of the nice warm fireplace!
