In the Nick of Time

 Just as we thought that Spring would get here without any snow to speak of, we woke up on Monday morning to this beautiful sight.
 Monday was President's Day and as many of the schools were out, it seemed like a perfect day to let the kids play with their friends in the snow.  The older kids were brave enough to go down the hill by our driveway.
 The girls were out running around in the forest and they looked tired when they got back.
 Especially after climbing up our hill.
 After lunch, they went back out for some snowman building and snowball throwing.  Jared made a head and named him General.  Then he put him downstairs in our freezer.  We haven't told Chris about it, we're waiting to surprise him when he gets home from China, won't he be surprised to find a frozen head in the freezer!
 
On Tuesday it was really warm, but there was just enough snow to build a fort and have a great snowball fight.  I hope the kids enjoyed it because Spring is on it's way, we've had several days of 70 degrees lately.
