Our Week in Photos #29

It's time for a little catch-up in photos! January always slows down in picture taking and I just haven't take the time to recap our weeks lately either!  Time to get back into that routine :-)

 Josh and Nate spent a week with my mom and one of the things they did was head to the world famous Frankenmuth for the snow and ice festival.  Ironically I think it was in the 50's that day and they saw more melting than anything else!

 Behind them is a sloth - we tell Josh he is related to the sloth family because he is so slow HA!

 Finally, a picture of Nate with Santa Claus! (That was my mom's creative idea!)

 Last Sunday we got hit with a huge snowstorm.  A friend challenged her facebook "world" to stop and go outside to take pictures of your kids in the snow.  I did just that (PJ's and all!). 

 We got a lot of snow!  Finally!  And it wasn't so cold that we couldn't be outside :-)

 Nate is my snuggle bug.  He loves to sit with me every single night before bed.  Sometimes it is easy to forget that he is just a little kid (only 8).  I know these days won't last forever so I try to enjoy them as much as possible.

 On Wednesday of this past week, Darryl was home so after haircuts, we took the boys to the sledding hill at our local park - it was their first time on the huge hill and they  . . .liked the smaller hill in the middle better HA!  It was great because the hill was empty so we didn't have to worry about collisions!

 While the kids were sledding I enjoyed a wonderful coffee treat HA!  Darryl enjoyed his with me too - then got tired of the boys trying to figure out how to sled so then he headed out to help them :-)

Heading in from the snow (We had our little friend with us too - she was a trooper and just loved sledding!)

This has been a super snowy week - we got hit with another big storm (about 8 inches of snow) on Friday and are ready for round two on Sunday (expecting anywhere from 3-6 inches of snow).
