Keeping Up with Ron, Sara, Jackson and Addie

Snow falling...

We woke up today to the first day of winter weather, 10 inches of snow!  Very wet snow, perfect snow for snowman making.

Last year Addie was too young to be able to enjoy the snow.  During all of our winter outings Addie was bundled in her infant seat sitting on a pile of snow while we went sledding, played in the snow or went ice skating.  Though last year she did make it on one toboggan ride downhill in her infant seat.

This year,Addie took off her mitten first thing and picked up a chunk of snow and played with it in her fingers. She was happy sit in the snow for a spell, but after waiting for us to build Mr. Snowman she had lost her patience.

Jackson, on the other hand, couldn't wait to get out in the snow to play in it! He would have went out in his pajamas if I would have let him.  He had a blast making a snowman, hiding under trees, and making snow angels.  Mom and Grandma did most of the snowman making, but Jackson directed where the accessories went and was happy to add the corn-cob pipe!  Happy Winter... see you in the snow!

She don't look all that happy. I bet it was fun for all. I cant wait for jackson to come over and drive my tractor and blow the snow off the drive way.
