Snow Day

February 1, 2008

There was so much snow today, we got to stay home from school! First I help daddy clear the driveway and sidewalk. Better get my "snowblower"

Gotta get the tough spots with my shovel.

See there really was a lot of snow.

Wow, this is hard work ...

Now we better dig out the car

and brush off the snow.

Mommy told me to kick the icicles off.

Daddy helped too.

But I had to clean up after him

Daddy took me out back so we could clean up there too

Better clean off my slide.

The Ethan went over the mountain ...

Max stayed nice and warm inside. And mommy took Max's four month picture (a little late)

I think he needs more friends though

Better take some pictures. Say "cheese" Max!

Hey daddy, Max likes to stand up ...

That was great Max, let me give you a kiss.

A few more mug shots ...

And a few kisses.

That night we went to play in the snow at Elspeth's. Watch out for that big purple snow bunny!

Is this how you make snow angles?

What's under all that snow?

The light is fading ... but we're still having fun.

Pile on snow mountain!

Ahhh. It's warm inside. It's always fun to puzzle with a friend.

More Snow!

Watch out mommy ... we have snow balls!

Back on snow mountain!

Here come the snow balls, daddy!

Finally, i get to make a snowman.

Hmm, i think that tree over there needs more snow ...

How do I get back?

Better budle up .. its cold out there ... hey, where's Max?

More snow ball fights with daddy, David and Malcolm. This time I have a shield to protect myself!

Sledding! Wow, this is a big hill. I was a little scared at first, but then it was lots of fun!

Ready for the Superbowl!

Happy Birthday Elspeth!

Today was Elspeth's 3rd birthday and we had so much fun. Can't wait for my birthday party!

Lots of balloons.

Everyone smile for the camera!

Tracy helped us make a cool Diego picture frame with our pictures in it!

Then Elspeth got to open all of her presents.

Here's the ones from Max and me.

Wow, her mommy and daddy got her a big girl bike! Can I have one too, mommy and daddy?

Then Elspeth gave all of her friends a nice present to say thank you for coming to her party.

And finally, we got to eat the cake.

Thanks for letting me ride your bakie and thanks for a great birthday party!
