November

This November was full of thanks!  What can be better than walking out of church and having snow coming down and it actually being stuck on the ground!  We couldn't let the snow pass by without a bit a play!  It NEVER snows before Thanksgiving!!! 

I know it isn't much, but it was snow and it had to be played in!!!!
While it snowed a 'skiff' at our house, it snowed lots at my moms!  That made for a fun Thanksgiving for everyone at Grandma Rose's house!  When we arrived on Wednesday night I was surprised that there was still snow!  The next morning there was more snow falling and we had to get out and play!

Grace, Leslie, and Cocoa and Maggie the doggies! 

Snow angels on the deck before breakfast!

 After breakfast everyone headed out to grandma's front lawn for snowmen and the small front yard hill for some sledding! 

Ryan and the Snowman complete with Icicle Mowhawk!

Grace and Em going down the hill

Everyone headed down the hill, snowman on the sidewalk!

Running into the house!

After we got the hang of the small hill we headed for the BIG hill, the long driveway to the big garage!  This hill is not for wimps!  (too many memories of faces bashed against the garage cause you are going so fast!  The key to safety?  Feet, to slow you down!)

Mom, trying the first run down the BIG hill!  AHHH MEMORIES!

 

Sarah and ? sledding right into the garage!

Mom, Grace, Caleb, and Spencer and Emily

Mom, Caleb and Grace all turned around!  360's are fun!

To go down you must go up!

Emily all bundled for fun!

Mom and Grace loving the sledding!

 Spencer luge(ing)(?) at least what they were calling it!  keep watching and you'll see Caleb going down the little hill too!  The hills are very different!

Ryan going down the hill Luge style! 

We had a great Thanksgiving at our Grandma's!  Lots of fun memories!!!
