Snow Trip

A few weeks ago we took the drive up the mountain to have fun in the snow. There was a ton of it! I have to admit, I am not a big fan of snow. I don't like sinking into it, I don't like walking in it, I don't like getting all wet and cold from it. But, when you have a 2 year old and a big kid of a husband running around and playing in it making you laugh, the trip becomes a bit more enjoyable :-)
We found a good hill and Colby and Daddy made countless trips down on the sled. Sometimes a little fast for my comfort, but Colby kept saying, "I wanna do that again!" We'll just say Kyle definitely got his work-out in for the day!
We decided to build a snowman. Colby started to help me out, but soon got bored with that. Daddy forgot his gloves, so his hands weren't excited about helping either...
Colby did help when it came time to put the arms on.
And the finished product. I must say I'm not the best snowman builder, and it took me a long time!
And of course, the only thing Colby wanted to do was "Crash it!"
So the poor thing only stood in it's finished glory for about 2 minutes. Then Colby said, "I wanna build it and crash it again!" Sorry pal, too much work!
A happy kid in the snow makes a great trip for all of us!

I think the last time you made a snowman was with Kyle when you were in Idaho at school.

Glad you guys had a good time. I love looking at the snow but don't especially like being in it. I'm a wimp...don't like to be cold.
