Sledding fun....toddler style

In our recent "big snow" we went "sledding" in our backyard. It was a beautiful snow, covering all the limbs on each tree. It was Calvin's first time to really play in the snow and he wasn't sure about it, happy and then not all that thrilled about it by the end (too cold I think) :) Of course our fearless Emers was continuously asking for MORE! It was just a small hill, but we had fun. There was a lot of snow that fell, but by the time we got in the backyard, most had melted.

We are gearing up for Emerald's cowgirl party this weekend. Can't believe that next week she will be 3! Happy belated birthday to Jacob and Riley and soon to be Ellie's birthday. We got to see the Bohannon's this week. We LOVED meeting their new baby, Eden, and Emerald was so thrilled to have a friend to play with. We are fortunate that some of our Texas friends have family here in Kansas and it forces a visit to the cold, north land. We miss our Texas friends.

Calvin fell, twice last week. Poor kid ended up with 2 different places about an inch apart on his forehead. Emerald will repeat our phrase, "Calvin is called Scar Face." He is all boy!
