Serious Snow!

We got dumped on! In the past two weeks, Robbie has only had three days of school (okay, there was a holiday in there, and it's only Wednesday, but STILL!) Rob got to stay home for two days--the hospitals and stores basically closed. It isn't so much that there was TONS of snow--no different than a good Utah storm, but they don't have the capacity here to deal with it. The freeways were even closed! So, we played!!!

All the neighbors came together and built a sled hill. I love the sense of neighborhood here. It's so cute, everyone starts shoveling their driveways, and once one person is done, they move to the neighbors' to help them--who then moves to the next house . . . by the time you get to the last house, the driveway is full of people helping. So great!

Since we're at the end of the cul de sac, we get all the snow-plowed heaps! So we have an igloo, a snow base, and a tunnel fort with a slide.  The neighborhood is in heaven!

We took the kids skiing Saturday, too (for the third time this season). We got a sitter for poor Jimmy, and took the big boys! They are doing AMAZING!!!
