Another Snowy Day!!



  We have gotten a TON OF SNOW THIS WINTER!! I have hated it. For some reason, this winter has hit me hard. I have been a little bit in a funk and I hate having the weather affect me in such a way. I have been kind of a grump and a little depressed. After almost five years of living in Northern Utah, the snow has finally gotten to me! Ugh. I really don't mind the snow around Christmas Time because it makes it seem so Magical but even before Christmas this year, I was hating the Snow. I take this as not a good sign for possibly living in Northern Utah for the rest of my life. However, even though I don't care much for it, my kids love it. We have gotten a lot of really good snow storms and the kids have been able to build forts, snowmen and have snow fights. Another plus, is that we do live in a neighborhood with a lot of great kids/ built in playmates. After one particular snow storm the kids all showed up at our house and built snow forts. Mark and I ended up going out and helping the kids. I also hurried inside and quickly made the kids flags for their forts out of some leftover felt and wooden dowels I had on hand. The kids all loved them and felt like they had an official fort! It was pretty cute. At least the kids are getting some enjoyment out of the snow!!

Neighborhood Friend Brandon Rowe and Kaleb Throwing Snowballs and Building a Snow Fort! Kaleb adores Brandon and even though Brandon is four years older, Brandon always takes time to talk to Kaleb and make him feel included. I know Kaleb looks up to Brandon so I am so grateful for such a great neighborhood and great neighborhood friends.


These are some cute little snow bunnies! Mckenna Rowe, Karmindy and Taryn Smart. I helped the girls with their fort and I thought it turned out awesome!!  Karmindy was in heaven playing with the big girls. They were so nice to include her!
