January 2011 snow fun

PLEASE NOTE: Beth did not write this post. I screwed up and put the post on her blog instead of mine. I'm going to try to put a link on my post so I don't have to do the darn thing over!

Since there has been alot of snow up on the rim since the first of the year and the boys have a three day weekend, we all decided we should go up to the high country and play in the snow. The weather cooperated with fairly mild temps for the middle of January.


Lots of snow on the north side of the cabin.




Wipeout!

High flyin'!

Goin' really fast!


Even Dev hauled his sled up the hill!

They saw 5 deer in the yard and were able to get pretty close to them.
Haulin' snow to the front yard......




The boys were in a cooking mood. Logan was in charge of the hash browns. Not TOO many went down the burner.


Time for washing dishes and little Mr. Dev wanted to help!


A new Lego Buzz.


Logan is the organized one of the bunch and made an itinerary for the next morning:
7:30- wake up
8:00- start breakfast
8:30- eat breakfast
9:00- put snow clothes on and go outside
Everyones clothes were laid out with their names on, which made everyone stay on schedule. Logan made pancakes and I was in charge of the bacon. They were outside by 9:00 on Sunday.
This was the day that Logan mastered standing up on the sled, going down the hill and over the speed bump!




The deer came back to visit across the street and back over to our side yard.

Our friends, Pam and Steve, just happened to be in the neighborhood so they couldn't resist a little snow fun!


Dev did a "face plant" into the snow and got a scratched up cheek.
Time to cook again. Dil was scrubbing potats to bake and looked out the kitchen window to see...

the deer again having some supper in the back yard!

And here is Logan mushing up stuff for meat loaf! They all ate it....in addition to lots of oatmeal cookies and "roof bare floats".
They were so busy having fun in the snow that they didn't take time to shoot their new BB guns. Maybe next time.
