Snow Filled Memories

Our neighbors, Ted and Dela, offered to share some of their toys with us this winter. Michael and Caleb have especially enjoyed snowmobiling on our property, while Dallin and I prefer the sledding with the radio flyer sleds. Over the holidays, we spent many afternoons taking advantage of the sunny winter days.




And we're off!

Dallin's solution to his chills was sharing a coat with Grandpa.

For a sledding hill, we blocked our driveway at the bottom and then held on for a ride to the top. Once everyone made it up the hill we took turns sledding .5 mile down hill, past the barn, and clear through till the driveway levels out. It's very cool.




After our first day out, Grandma and Grandpa decided the boys needed a Radio Flyer sled of their own. With great effort, they set out on a mission to find one. Eventually, they succeeded and it's a good thing because we put that sled to good use the rest of the time they were here.



Our last run of the day ...

I love the pictures! Looks like a Winter Wonderland out there. It's unfortunate we weren't able to join you for Christmas this year. Looks like a blast. Maybe next go round. :)

We had so much fun. We are glad to have enjoyed the time with you. Sienna kept saying "More, more, more." She loved being with her cousins.
