OK, well maybe they weren't being angels when Katie was teaching Bridget how to make snowballs and throw them at Belle, but the girls have come close this weekend. Playing out in the snow has tired them out so much that they haven't had the energy to be anything other than angels.We haven't had a lot of snow the last two years, so the snowstorm we got on Friday was a big hit. The girls have spent hours and hours outside over the last three days. They've had to fit in all the activities they have missed - making snow angels, eating snow, snowball fights, and sledding. Today, they went sledding for over three hours!
All the shoveling (which we actually enjoyed) made the perfect basis for a snow cave. The girls and Daddy even started to get fancy using baking pans to make snow bricks.
The girls never tired of sledding. After over three hours of sledding today they still came home grumbling that they hadn't had enough.
And of course, we drank lots of hot cocoa and sat by the fire to warm up.
Tomorrow the big girls return to school after a week off for winter break. Fortunately, they had no trouble falling asleep tonight.

The pictures are great and of course the girls are adorable. For a very brief moment I even missed living in the cold climate.
We'll have to send you some "sand angel" pictures in about a month!
