Surprise Snow Day

Early March turned out to be our biggest snow of the year: four full inches!!! Just enough for some major sledding in our front yard!!! The girls had the most fun sledding when I went with them (which I loved)!!! But I'll admit that it was a bit of a struggle at first when I was trying to "ford a path" for our sled, but once the path was laid, it was a really fun and happy day to remember!!!

Eventually we found a GREAt spot where we would slide into a nice and soft pile of leaves! Perfect!

But I'm afraid Annie still wasn't so sure. . . .

And finally (right before all the snow melted totally away) Annie was brave enough to try it herself!!! : ) And she LOVED it!!!

And what would a snow day be without a ride on our swing?!? (Annie is standing by the "safe tree.") : )

A new activity we added today instead of making a snow man was making a snow fort! : )

And we just HAD to have a snowball fight, too!

"It was a stick. . . . A stick that was just right for smacking a snow-covered tree. Fwump! Down came the snow on top of my head! Plop!"

Then it was time for "Hot, hot, hot, hot choclolate" in front of the fire! : )
