More Snowy Days

Bryce and Landon have enjoyed spending a lot of time playing outside in the snow this winter. Look at Landon's happy face! Bryce acquired new skills this year in snowball throwing. Poor Landon has been the recipient of many snowballs in the face. I have a feeling Landon will get his revenge in a few years.
If Bryce and Landon are playing in the snow Grayson is sure to be there too!

Snow Day!

No school today due to snow so we bundled up and headed over to Aunt Lisa's to play. Lisa put food dye and water in spray bottles and the kids "painted" the snow. They loved it! Landon "hunted" for squirrels with Arron's toy gun. He said he wanted to be a hunter just like Uncle Greg.

Pinewood Derby Races

Pinewood Derby race day has arrived! Bryce had a front row seat to watch all of the racing cars.
John was an official Pinewood Derby helper this morning.
Bryce's car is ready to start racing. It didn't win, but we are already getting ready to improve for next year's race. Wally is determined to help Bryce improve his race time.

Vacation Day

Bryce had a scheduled day off from school today and his friend Grant spent the day with us. Bryce had a special request for Grant to wear his army gear for their day together. Landon was not about to be left out of this day of play. He also wore his army attire and kept up with the older boys - well atleast until his afternoon nap time!
After Landon woke up from his nap, the boys bundled up and went outside to play in the snow with neighbors Carter and Eric.

Snow Dog

Grayson loves the snow! He runs and hops like a frog to maneuver his body through the snow.

Storytime at the Library

Landon and I have gone to storytime at the library the past two weeks. This week we went with my friend Mell and her kids Meghan and Charlie. The kids had a great time listening to Ms. Ellen read stories, singing and coloring. The kids picked out library books after storytime. Meghan attempted to read a book on the rocking chair, but Landon had other ideas. He rocked her on the chair!

Pinewood Derby

Bryce is participating in the Scout's Pinewood Derby competition. We recruited the help of the expert - Wally!
Bryce and Landon put on their "safety glasses" during the carving process.
After we worked on the car, we helped to celebrate Wally's birthday. Bryce and Landon were special helpers with the candles!

A Friendly Game of Scrabble

We went to my parents' house on New Year's Day. We enjoyed a late night game of Scrabble wtih my mom and Aunt Ann. When the kids lost interest in the game, we had a serious game among the adults!
