Let Winter Begin!

We have not had much snow this winter, and certainly not enough to sled in!

We were so excited to see snow in the forecast for this Sunday.

It started snowing while we were at church, and continued all day!

I think we got five to six inches total.

The birds filled our restaurant to overflowing during the snow storm!


The kiddos and Blake played outside for a while on Sunday afternoon while it was still snowing hard.

Yesterday morning was bright and sunny and we could not wait to get outside!


We headed out back to start working on the sledding hill!

The kiddos take passes down it to start packing it down, and then haul snow from other areas of the yard to make it JUST right.


The sledding hill is a labor of love!

They work on it for days until it is fast and smooth!

Lord willing, this snow will stick around so all of their work will not be in vain.

The forecast says a BIG snow storm is coming later today!


Having winter full of snow is one of the best parts of living up north.

It is SO beautiful, and SO fun!

Here’s hoping for that 8 inches they are predicting for tonight!!

I know some kiddos here who are so excited to see if it really happens!

Let winter begin!!

It is just “snow” much fun!!!
