Winter in Wisconsin...still

Bryan throwing a snowball at the photographer, always an instigator!

Bryan working on the snow slide he made for the girls, they had so much fun on it (so did Bryan and I).

Olivia taking a turn on the slide.


Eileen taking her turn and trying to remember to keep her feet up while going down! She got more adventurous the more she went down it, head first, on her back, her belly, her side, and even rolling head over feet!

While the girls and I were playing on the slide Bryan was working on his giant face, the neighbors made a snowman that must be about 10 feet tall so we got more than enough snow to remind us that winter in Wisconsin will not go out without a fight (more snow to come this week!). We all had a blast playing in the snow while Joseph took his nap, a good thing with all the bowing it would have been so cold on his fat little cheeks. When the girls were thoroughly frozen we went in to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate (Thank you Auntie Lori, the girls love it!) with marshmallows of course. Over the weekend we were also very happy to have the hot tub working again, it was nice to be able to warm up in there after all the shoveling and playing outside we did, what great family time snow is able to create!
