Snow fun in Utah!!

The girls had SO much fun being in the snow!!! Uncle Steve built a snow hill in the backyard...you can see that Daddy has to stand on a chair to reach the top of it!!! Yea Uncle Steve!After you went down the hill aways they built a great 90 degree turn (it was fun to watch engineers at work...and even more fun to watch the big boys go down the hill to "carve out the path")

And the best was wiping out at the end...and seeing how far you could get!
Then the fun continued when Daddy thought he should race the kids going down the hill so he put a kid on a sled and counted down and then Daddy would take off while Uncle Steve pushed a kid down the hill. I think everyone took turns winning. Then Daddy decided for even MORE fun he should add a little hill so the sled could catch some air! There were an awful lot of wipe-outs!!!
But there was always a warm fire and slipperes afterwards :)
And there was another great hill in their other grandparents backyard!! Lots of snow time!!! They have a tunnel slide as well so there was lots of fun...and some good snow ball fights!!

And great hot chocolate afterwards!

Yeah, you changed it. I love those pictures, oh how I'm missing snow right now! Sounds like a blast and there's nothing better than warming by the fire afterwards..
