Snow Fun

More and more in the last few days I have heard many people say "I am ready for spring."  I agree with this statement but the ground does not reflect the same sentiment.  Last week we received 11 inches of snow in a snow storm that was only supposed to leave a trace.  Isaac and Caleb loved it and helped me do a little shoveling one afternoon.  Isaac was a great help, Caleb not so much!

On Saturday we decided to take the boys sledding on one of the more popular hills in Indianola.  They had a blast and each one braved the hills by themselves which neither Zach or I thought would happen.  I guess our boys are fearless.  After getting home from sledding, Zach & Isaac stayed outside to build a snow fort in the yard.  Isaac wasn't a lot of help in this project and actually quit in the middle to come inside but Zach finished it and both boys enjoyed walking around in it the next morning.  Good Job Zach!

Finished product!
Warmer temps are coming our way this weekend with some rain so a lot of our snow will melt and the ground will start to look more like the agreed upon statement of "I'm ready for spring!"
