Fun Family Time

Today church was cancelled due to the snow. That concept is really strange to me being an Idaho girl. I mean it snows an inch or so and they even cancel school here. It is going to take some getting used to I guess. But honestly today it was a welcomed break. Don't take that wrong or anything but this pregnant mommy was glad she didn't have to sit in a dress and try to keep her knees together for 3 straight hours. I mean come on, you've been there... It is really hard to sit pretty when there is a giant bowling ball permanently attached to your belly.

So today we took advantage of the extra time and spent it as a family outside playing in the snow. The kids had lots of fun sledding with daddy on our "mini hill" of a backyard. It is perfect for our kids. It isn't too sloped so I don't have to worry about any bumps or bruises. And I had fun snapping pictures all morning.

So a little sledding and a little snowmen building after. Dan had the fun idea of creating a
3 Little Pigs scene in our new Lil Tikes log cabin. It was complete with the big bad wolf!

It was a fun morning and I always enjoy watching Dan play with the kids. Even if sometimes it can get a little out of hand. For example...

And After

Don't worry he didn't really hit him with that giant ball. He just got a little snow down his shirt.

But all in all a fun time with the family. Here are a few more shots from the morning...I had a hard time narrowing them down to the best ones. There were a lot of fun ones.
