SNOW!!!

We just spent the last 10 days or so in the North visiting with friends and family and celebrating Christmas and New Years. It was a lot of fun and we made lots of fun memories! (We made some not so fun memories, but I'll save that for another post...) Every time we talk about heading up for the Holidays we get the same questions over and over from the kids... "Is it going to snow????" This year they decided to pray for snow and their prayers were definitely answered! This may seem funny to people up North, but since it hasn't snowed in Panama City since 1989...people state that fact all the time around here...it is a once a year adventure for our kids. Christmas Eve it started snowing and it really was a perfect and beautiful snow. The kids went out and played in it with their Teipen cousins and had so much fun! Maddie and Josie with Sam Beau the dog trying to catch snow flakes on their tongues. They sledded and made snow angels.

And even jumped on the trampoline; which proved to be about as dangerous as it looks.

While we were there they got many more opportunities to play in the snow.

Posing for a picture is not near as much fun as jumping from a mound of snow, but I'm glad he humored me

Maddie loved every minute of it!

Daddy took them out to play most of the time and I stayed in with Megan. Maybe next year she will be old enough so we can all get out in it!
