Sledding Time!

Sunday, while the snow was falling and before the cold (it was a steamy 30°, which really did feel warm), we headed over to the park for some sledding. Cameryn and Avery were already there so the kids all got to go sledding together. Ben and Cameryn LOVED it!!! They rolled down the hill together, raced down the hill, rode down together, made snow angels and threw snowballs. Nick, the official crazy maniac of the bunch, had so much fun, when we got in the car to leave, his first words were, 'That was fun. Let's do it again'. I see a lot of Cedar Point adventures in his future.

Wobble Wobble

Ben got a balance game from Uncle Jay for Christmas that the boys were playing the other day. Nick is actually semi decent at switching his balance. He is still working on which color to hit when the game calls out a color, though. 


Earning His Keep

Ben really does love to shovel. He was so proud of himself for shoveling a path for Monster on the deck. First he had to shovel a straight path then he had to do the connector to the door. He really did do a good job! He got an extra treat for all his hard work when I finally got him to come inside.

Playing Catch With Monster - In the Snow

Lexi and Ben had fun playing catch with Monster in the backyard. 


Snow Soccer

You can still practice your soccer in the snow.

Snow Time

The first round of snow started New Years eve and ended two days later. I took the boys outside on New Years day for some snow time. They had lots of fun shoveling, making snow angels, playing in the igloo and riding around the backyard on their sleds. 


















They'll Sleep Good Tonight!

I'm not quite sure how it came about, but somehow Lexi ended up pulling both boys around the yard on the sled, and she was game for it. They all slept well that night after all the time outside!

A New Year's Eve Night of Fun

After the Noon-Year's eve party, we took some naps and then ended up having a little NYE party next door with Lexi and Austin! We are some serious party animals! haha! Again, the kids had sparkling cider in champagne flutes and played and played. The boys all hung until midnight! I think we all slept in until 8:30 the next morning.
