February Blast of Snow!

This past weekend we had a winter storm that dumped 20" of snow on us!  That's right......20" of snow!




It was a doozy of a storm!!

School was cancelled on Friday, along with most businesses.......so what are you to do?!?!

Play in the SNOW!!!




Or should I say......shovel the snow!  It was one of those storms where you barely finish clearing off the driveway and it would be time to start all over again.  It was just coming down so fast!

Taylor got a kick out of helping out daddy with the shoveling!!









And what's better after being in the cold........hot chocolate with colored marshmallows!!!





On Sunday, we found a big hill back behind our house that others had used as a sledding hill.  So, we had to follow suit!

Madi went on her first "official" sledding ride!  We have pulled her around on the sled before but she has never really gone down a hill.  I think she would have enjoyed it a little more......she was getting tired.




I like to eat snow!

Mark walking up to try and go off the jump someone made!

Here I go.......

..........and.......not enough speed!








These next pictures are absolutely hilarious!!!  I decided that I needed to show Mark up a little bit......


I am WOMAN.......hear me roar!!!
And here I go......

Uh, oh.......something doesn't feel right!

Yep!

Over.........

.....and over........

......and over!!!


And, that folks........that's what you get when you decide to get a little too cocky!

You guys got WAY more snow than we did! I think we only got 6-8 inches. Looks like you had a great time sledding and playing!

On a not so fun note, send me an email. I couldn't find a link to yours on your blog. I'm not sure if you are aware of the Brazilian on Orkut who is stealing pics, but I found Madi's pic on there.

Fun! We've had such little snow this year that we haven't been sledding yet.
