Idaho Family Surprise

We had the best surprise ever this week at Grandma and Grandpa Bohrer's house. We were sad that our cousins from Virginia weren't going to be with us this Christmas this year and in our prayer we were praying that they would be remembered and blessed this holiday season and who walked in as we all said Amen? Jason, Heidi, Whitney and Mason--they drove straight through the last 48hrs. We were all shocked. After we gave hugs I told them I was sorry that I already sent their presents in the mail and Dan's remark was "Not as sorry as I am" Remember, I am married to an accountant and it costs money to send gifts, especially heavy ones, far away. He cracked me up. I had to tell them, and of course they laughed too. Our kids were so excited to have all of their Bohrer cousins together for Christmas celebrations and fun in the snow. We loved our Christmas Surprise from the Bohrer cousins far far away.

We had so much fun in the deep snow. It snowed over 10" while we were there one night and then kept on coming down. The wind with that gave us some HUGE snow drifts to get the mule stuck in while pulling the sleds and we had to get the tractor out a few times to get the road cleared and also to get people out from being stuck in the snow.
Grandpa Herb, you are so nice to help everyone with your tractor.

Snow...FINALLY!


Hailey and her friend Kaylee, playing in the snow, so excited to finally have it.


Freezing little hands, that is what happens when you take off your gloves before you go inside.



Don't eat the snow! Yuck!

She is such a doll.

Look at those missing front teeth.

The snow must be softer to land on?

Both of the girls had fun together.

Woops, slipped off. Soft landing.

"Mom, will you sleigh me?"

I am shoveling snow, and Kyle is playing in the snow with his sled and ruining every clean path I shovel. Glad to have snow, and glad to be feeling well enough to shovel it. As I am clearing the driveway for the 2nd time for the day (Dan did it before he left, it just happened to lay down another 4 inches) Kyle is sad because there is no-one to play with in the snow.
Then he caught me off guard by saying the cutest thing.
"Mom, will you sleigh me?"
I started to laugh and then said, "Sure, do you mean pull you on the sled?"
Slay and Sleigh, same diff ha?
If he only knew why I was laughing, I didn't want to explain the other meaning of the word that sounds like sleigh.
Happy Holidays!
I'll upload the pictures tomorrow, my computer is running low on battery.
