Our backyard is the best. It comes complete with a stream, climbing trees, sledding hill, tree frogs, wildflowers, a slip and slide runway, rocks to turnover, and snow fortresses. I have always loved playing in the snow. Elizabeth is right there with me. We were sledding, building snowman, hiking up the mountain, kicking back under a snow covered tree. Just when I think I am a total beach bum and want to move someplace warm, we get hit with a snowstorm like this. Maybe its my German blood or the fact my mother used to push me out the door with the dog at the crack of dawn. In either case, I could spend hours in the snow. My hubby is the same way. We took turns playing with Elizabeth and my niece because Jude was not so psyched about the snow. He a bit of a delicate fleur. My sweet little boy. He spent most of the time trying to play with he cement mixer in the snow. I'm sure in another year he will be up to speed. I love the way it is so quiet in the snow. Magical. Like we are in a different world. It feels so surreal in our yard. Not sure if the pictures can capture that....
