Winter Weekend

Winter is gone now (fingers crossed), but I wanted to document one of our favorite winter weekends.  We started early Friday with Dad's annual work sledding party.  Such a fun event and a great way to get together with colleagues and friends.  
 Here are the boys ready to tackle the sledding hill.

 Mom's ready for the fun too.  I love tubing!

 Bundled and excited for some winter fun.

 This was the last run of the night and Eli is FREEZING!  These two boys had so much fun making sled trains and mom and dad had a great time cruising down the mountain with them.  One time we even made a four chain with two moms and two kids - so much fun!

 Sherman is still too young for the big hill, so mom and dad took turns playing with him while the other parent took Everett on the hill.  Ryan and Sherman made this great Snowman during my last run down the hill with Everett.  Lots of smiles...now let's go get some hot chocolate and food!

 Saturday we headed to the famous ice-castles with some friends.  Since Frozen came out, my kids have been begging to see the castles.  I don't think they were disappointed (I'll add that for the price, I probably wouldn't go again :)).  

"Let it Snow, Let it Snow"  Everett is always performing and giving life his all.  

We had a great weekend surround by friends and family and the beautiful outdoors.  I love the beautiful state we live in and the great family I get to enjoy it with!

Gorgeous - almost makes me think snow and ice are beautiful......almost. You have a wonderful family and we are so glad to be a bit closer even though glimpses are few and far between.
