We were so excited a few weeks ago when we woke up to a winter wonderland. It had been in the 70's and then suddlenly dropped to below freezing (well just below). And we woke up to this amazing site.
So we turned on the radio and TV to see if school had been cancelled and no news. So we got Danica dressed and took her to the bus - and waited... and waited...and then we made a snowman and still no bus. So we went home and played in our yard, but I didn't bring the camera to that excersion. But later that afternoon when Dallin was up we went out again. Yes- we love the snow!! Danica loves it so much she had to eat it... 
Dallin really loved it too. So glad we got him this coat when we thought we were going to be in the Rockies for the start of winter.
The kids pulled out the sled and pulled each other around the yard for a bit. I think this may have been Dallin's favorite part.
A disclaimer - the girls did have coats and mittens and everything, but they shed them shortly after getting outside. I guess they were getting in the way of their fun. But it wasn't really that cold out anyway. I just love this next picture. The sun just happened to be in the right place, and then it is reflecting off the snow to frame Whitney so perfectly...
And just so you get the idea of how much snow we really had - this is our snowman that we made around 4 in the afternoon and only used a corner of the yard snow to make it.

Yes - I am standing up straight. - we made a 5 foot snowman and look how much snow is left!!
We had so much fun. I wish it would cool off again and snow for Christmas this time. Guess I'll just keep on wishing.
