Christmas in Idaho!! part 2....SNOW!!!



When we arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's house the kids were in HEAVEN!! It was dark already, but they wanted to go play in the snow right when we opened the doors. Since all of their snow clothes were still packed, we convinced the boys to wait until morning.


The view outside the kitchen window. Check out all of those footprints! The snow was well played with.

Well, as soon as they could, James, Luke and Ben started playing almost nonstop in the snow. They build snow caves, tunnels, went sledding with their Uncle Ray, and then with the largest smiles on their face, they would come inside and drink hot chocolate next to the fire. They were in heaven! Especially after the next post you will understand their snowy happiness. :-)



The view out of the kitchen window. I love the snow slopping off of the roof. I don't see that much anymore living in the desert.



The Teton Mountains in the horizon...one of my favorite views of Idaho.



Luke with his snow cave.



James BEGGED his Uncle Dustin to bury him in the snow. He LOVED it! He also said he was quite warm.



James and Tommy shoveling snow just for fun.-weird kids!


And it was cold!! This was in the middle of the day, I took this picture right after my dad said "Oh it feels good! Such a nice day!" (The following week it was about 0* in the middle of the week. )
