January 14: Snow Day

Monday, January 14, a snowstorm closed the schools for the day. Oh hurray! I needed a practice run before the scheduled Monday holiday of January 21...

It was a heavy, wet snow.



It even bent the trees over.



The kids loved it. They spent the morning building a snow fort and the afternoon sledding.



Trixie stayed in bed.

The Kids' First Ski Experience

On January 6 we took the kids downhill skiing for the first time.

Unfortunately, they loved it.
