20 inches in the last 36 hours for our neck of the woods. Snow day on Friday. Playing and shoveling...many  many games of memory and sorry...endless cups of hot chocolate and tea. Socked in and loving it!

two thumbs up...

from the kids after their first day of ski school. Took them up this morning despite the huge wind gusts, got geared up and off they went. They had a half day lesson and came off the mountain rosy cheeked and smiling.  

 I see a family day of skiing in the near future!

photo shoot

Driving around Denver I have spotted many fun places I have always thought would be fun to take pictures by...so I finally took the kids on a driving photo shoot field trip!

They were very good sports...more fun with the camera!

Thank you for letting us see the view through your eyes for a day...my sweet girl.

making our way down the list...

The task of making an igloo was a valiant effort made by the kids...but with 55 degree weather not cooperating it has come to an end until next snow fall.

 Little scientists at the museum...discovering how much sugar is in breakfast cereals.
