Anyway, in a little less than 24 hours, we got about 18 inches of snow. That's a LOT- especially since we moved here FROM South Carolina...we're not used to this! But, the kids LOVED it! We went sledding 3 or 4 times and Elise was a total daredevil on the hills...she surprised me with her willingness to go by herself on the icy hills in our neighborhood. Ainsley wasn't as excited about it all, but she was ok to at least hanging out with us in the snow. She was happy to sled with me, asking "More Mommy..." a few times, too. Tons of fun, but not tons of pictures b/c it was hard enough just moving around out there...so here are the few we have.
At one point, Elise and Adam stayed outside while I stayed in with the little ones...they were out sledding for almost TWO HOURS...that's a lot for someone who isn't even 4! She came in with the rosiest cheeks and so excited. I had hot (well, WARM b/c she doesn't like food to be hot!) chocolate with marshmallows waiting for her. It was sweet and cute. She LOVED the special treat and it was especially adorable watching her "teach" Ainsley about Hot Chocolate and how "that's what you get when you're a big girl and you can sled all day long...". =) Precious.

Great pics! (they look familiar :)). Funny, Ty doesn't like his food hot either; I guess that's what we get for serving his food cold to him when he was younger so that he wouldn't become too "high maintenance" and to protect us from that one time that we were out somewhere and he wouldn't eat because we couldn't warm his food. Now we have to cool everything in the freezer before giving it to him.
HOLY COW!!!!!! While it definitely looks fun, especially to play with Elise.....it just seems crazy painful. My body shuddered looking at it. It's in the 30s here and I'm pretty STINKIN cold!!!!!!
