photos {snow day}

it's hard to believe we had two snows within a couple of weeks! this "storm" landed about 4" in our yard before turning over to sleet. we were lucky to have a good day of snow fun on monday. by tuesday, everything was solid ice (and our backyard is still covered). i ended up working from home 3 days and spencer missed 3.5 days of school.

when we realized this snow wasn't good for snowball fights and building snowmen, we pulled out the sled. first we tried it in the road. here spencer is trying to push matt down the hill. it didn't work.

colton and tara joined us for our time in the snow. thanks to a heads up from another family, we headed down the street for a better sledding location.

this worked much better.

matt took coleman for a spin. he loved it.

even i took a few spins down the hill.

i have no idea what is going on in this picture. but i like it.

later in the day, we decided to go out again. we tied a rope to the sled and used it to pull coleman down the street.

it was sleeting by now, so we didn't keep coleman out quite as long. here he is taking one last ride with spencer before we headed home (matt, warren & spencer stayed out for a while longer).
