Weekend in the Snow

January 22nd, 2012

We went up to Pinetop to stay with Ant’s mom and step-dad for the New Year’s weekend. Our friends Erin and Alex joined us and the boys enjoyed a day of snowboarding on Saturday while us girls had lunch and played in the snow. We didn’t realize how long it had been since we visited their cabin up north until we realized it was Poppy’s first visit! This was also the first time Ella actually had fun in the snow! We built an Ella snowman the first night, so the second day it was imperative that we make a Poppy snowman and Mommy snowman to boot. Somehow we didn’t get around to building a Daddy out of snow, and we completely forgot about sledding!! Next time, next time…

We ate hotdogs and chili dogs in the snow at the corner hotdog stand, avoided Bam and Zeek the dogs at all costs (“I don’ like da big doggies!!!”), and found a new love in Grandpa’s drum set. And us grownups had a couple fun game nights after the littles went to bed.

We had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa, and Erin and Alex being there? All the better. Here is our New Year’s weekend in the snow, in pictures:

P.S. to Grandma Cheryl – Ella asked me yesterday, “You sink Gamma Cheryl is takin’ care of dee snowmans?” I told her I’m sure they’re happy as can be.
