It started out as a fun night... and the snow came!!! It's rare to get enough snow to build forts or snowmen with so the kids took full opportunity to build away. They trucked snow in from all over the yard!
The 5 gallon wheat buckets seem to work best for shaping the walls of the fort. Tate was adding a little reinforcements with the extra snow.
Reese loved her ride around the yard in the sled!
Catching snow flakes!
If I had gotten these in the right order... this shot would have been last! The next day the kids all went to an empty development that was going to be a Target. It's just a steep hill and dirt now so they thought it would be the perfect sled riding hill. Well... until Mark came home with some injuries. At first look, it seemed like a simple cut on the ear. A week later, we soon found out that Mark had a severe concussion! He tried to got out for a run and was gone about ten minutes before he came back and started vomiting. He had a HORRIBLE headache, vertigo, and could only lay flat on his back. Long story short... after a couple of trip to the ER and several Dr's appts. they finally found that he had a concussion. It was a LONG recovery, but he's was back to normal by summer... or as normal as Mark can be ;)
Tate taking on the hill... he was actually in the wreck with Mark... trains on sleds with lots of people is NOT a good idea. He was o.k. thankfully! Just a NASTY bruise on the face! Funny thing is... we took HIM to the Dr. to be checked for a concussion... NOT Mark!
