Playing in the lodge

I'm not sure what the kids were looking at here.

Back in February we went on a snow trip with our neighbors The Moore family & The Crowe family. We sure had fun and everyone got along great! We were nice and close to the hills where we went sledding. Our kids are little dare devils not scared of much. Kennedi couldn't get enough and loved every minute of it. At one point she bit her lip and it was bleeding she was so worried that I would make her stop. She kept saying mom I'm fine & I'm not bleeding!!

Snowball fights, games, hot chocolate, hanging out in the lodge, snowmobile rides, lots of food, building snowmen, sledding, snow angels, movies & treats!

I must admit I wasn't sure I would enjoy this trip because anyone that knows me knows I HATE being cold. It ended up being good weather, with lots of snow to play in but the sun was out most of the time. Madison is so sweet and was a great helper. Thanks for a fun trip and can't wait for the next one.

Brrrr!

A couple of weekends ago we went up to my grandparents cabin for a day of fun in the snow! There are two great hills next to the cabin for tubing. The kiddos had a blast and I didn't get too cold. It was really nice because the sun was out for most of the day! After we were done playing in the snow we got warmed up in the cabin and played games and watched a movie. It ended up being a great family trip to the snow.

WE ARE BACK!!!

We made it home! Oh home sweet home!!! It was beautiful in Utah but way too cold for me. We drove all the way with the kiddos sleeping or watching a movie. They did great!!! We stayed in Park City at the Canyons with the Sirrines. Here are just a few of the fun things we did while in Utah.

We played lots and lots of games!
And also did a lot of eating.
The HUGE pile in the back is all our snow gear.

The kiddos had lots of fun playing with cousins.
They even got to open some Christmas gifts, it felt like Christmas was never going to end!
I got a nasty cold so I stayed in most of the time. Playing in the snow is not my idea of a good time! When I was younger I loved skiing & I tried snow boarding but not anymore. The kids on the other hand loved every minute of it.

We hung out with our friends who just moved from Arizona. Cody & Landon were very excited to get to play together even if it was for one afternoon!

We meet Mike's mom, sisters and brother for breakfast. Shana and her two kids Shea and Connor came to visit from Vernal. They really spoiled the kids and got them cute stuffed animals.

The twins got to tested out Shea's ipod and loved it!

Carter loved the snow one night when we were in the parking lot unloading we looked down & he was in the dirty snow. He was laying there making a snow angel! The drive up all Kennedi kept saying was "Dad, snow make snowman!" On the last day Mike tried really hard but it was too powdery. We also saw some cute movies, did a little shopping and went swimming in the heated pool. The temp got down to -7 so driving into Phoenix and it being 72 degrees made this girl very happy!!!
