The snow fell a couple of times this winter. The first storm was just a dusting, but the boys were so excited to try out their new snow shovels. I hope they are this willing to help when they are teenagers!


At the end of January we got a lot of snow! It was enough for shoveling, sledding, and even digging out a snow fort complete with a secret hole in which to stow emergency rations--graham crackers, gum, and a fruit leather. Here are all the boys during a break from a tiring morning of clearing the driveway.
