President's Day - Holiday!

Michael surprised me with these flowers when he picked me up from a doctor's appt. Monday morning. So beautiful!!

After lunch we all got our snow gear on to go play in the yard! We got lots of snow just in the last week!
all ready to sled
Madilynn was the first to go down and make our tracks...

Elizabeth was getting a ride around the yard, although I'm not sure how much she really enjoyed it.

Elizabeth wasn't sure about the whole thing. I don't think she could've been cold, but she did have so much on that she could hardly move!

Madilynn & Elizabeth first time together!

Madilynn was enjoying every minute!

Maybe you can tell Elizabeth's reaction to everything a little better here...she's crying!

2nd time

Elizabeth still isn't enjoying herself

We decided maybe she would like to just walk around so we found an area that had been pressed down really well. She finally stopped crying and started exploring!

Madilynn with a huge snowball!

on top of the wall the snowplow made in our yard (the end of a cul-de-sac) she said it was her castle!

Elizabeth had to give the snow a taste - she does love ice and she enjoyed the snow as well.

the result...if you can tell

We had such a great day together! I was glad we had gotten some snow to get to play in!
