Sledding at the farm!

We had been wanting to get to the Purinton farm to go sledding and have a fun weekend and we finally had a chance to do that this weekend. It snowed about 10" last Tuesday but with the beautiful weather we had on Friday & Saturday a lot of it had melted. The weather couldn't have been nicer...sledding in 50 and 60 degree weather is really not a bad thing!

We started with building snowmen while we waited for Grandma & Grandpa (Wayne & Sandy) to arrive. They showed up just in time with snowman accessories--hats & carrots. We used checkers for the eyes & mouth:)

Isaac did great building his. He rolled the snow and stacked the layers. And when his snowman fell over he simply stated that it was taking a nap!

Chloe did great building her snowman as well. She honestly rolled the middle ball herself. It was fun having the correct snow for snowman building. She also accessorized the snowman, adding the "scarf" to the chest.
Last September we bought my dad's 4-wheeler and have had it at the farm. Royce pulled the kids on the sled and they had a blast. I think daddy had more fun than the kids, just listening to them laugh.


And in-between sledding runs Isaac did some fishing...Ice fishing I guess???? It was cute.





Here are some videos of the kids sledding! They actually learned to tip themselves over as Royce kept pulling them...they loved falling over and running to get back on!
