Snow Business

The BIG hill!

It was a fun snow day for my family today! 13 of us rode up
toward Mt. Hood and went sledding. It was a GREAT time!

I haven't been sledding in years! I'm so glad I went! My kids
had lots of fun, too!

Rakes make the best snow fight weapon!

We got snow over the weekend. Two snow days from school. Oregon shuts down when we get snow. The first night, Nathan and McKenna were outside trying to build a slushy snowman. I took the rake out front to "shovel" the front drive by the car. The kids thought I wouldn't notice them sneaking up behind me, snow in hand. Quickly I turned the rake backwards and in one swift motion sprayed them with snow from the rake. It was GLORIOUS! They were SOAKED! That'll teach them to try to sneak up on Mom!
