Playing in the snow!

We got so much snow last week, that Uncle Jared decided to get out his snowmobile. So we took the kids down to Steve's parents' house to ride the tubes and sleds behind the snowmobile. It was so much fun. They pulled the kids around in the field behind their house. Sharla and her kids came too and the kids had a blast.

This is Lilly after getting dressed in her snow clothes. She was so puffed up that she had a hard time walking in her clothes and boots. It was hilarious.

The kids decided to build a snowman while they were waiting for the snowmobile to be ready. Of course, Grandma Anderson was right in the middle helping them.
She is so great to be involved and do stuff with the kids.

This is the group after getting the snowman built. Kate was a little camera shy for this picture. She was mad about something, but I can't remember what.
Josie wanted to pose just like the snowman. She had so much fun!

After the snowman was done, they all got in a snowball fight. It was fun for everyone, except for one of Taylor's first snowballs hit Josie right in the face.
She wasn't to happy about that, but got over it quick.

Josie was just excited to be outside playing in the snow. I think that she had the most fun!

Here is Josie and Noah getting pulled by Jared. I didn't notice while we were there, but look at the beautiful mountains in the background. Sometimes I forget the amazing scenery we have from our front porches. We just take it for granted.

Here is Kate riding on Taylor's lap. She really loved it!


Now, she is riding on Brenden's lap. Fun, fun!


Another picture of Noah and Josie. They both LOVED doing this. They had a blast!

Brenden decided to go down the slide off of Grandma's deck. Brenden and McKenna kept doing it and landing in the snow at the bottom. It was alot of fun for them while they were waiting for their turn to ride.

What a great look on Brenden's face. He was obviously enjoying himself!

We added a sled behind the 2 tubes and this is Taylor trying to stay on. He did a great job and lasted almost the entire ride.

Steve decided he wanted to get in on the action. I think he really had lots of fun, too.

Another pictures of Noah and Josie. This time they are both on the sled in the back. I think they stayed on most of the time.

McKenna and Brenden can have fun no matter what they are doing, as long as they are together. They are such good friends.

Brenden and Kate went inside to get warm and were watching from the window.
Sorry, if all of the pictures got boring. I just thought they were some fun pictures and wanted to post them. I am glad that the kids got to have so much fun. We dread winter because of how cold it is, but times like this make us remember how lucky we are to have so much snow.
We all had a really great time.
Thanks, Uncle Jared for letting us use your snowmobile.
And of course, Grandma Anderson always takes care of all of us when we go there.
She had donuts and hot chocolate for all of us to eat and get warm.
