Spring?

Wasn't it just last week that I mentioned we were ready for spring??  I knew better than to get my hopes up too much in March in Minnesota.  We got a few inches of snow on Monday morning and then another several inches on Monday evening into Tuesday to give us a grand total of around 10 inches.  That wasn't exactly what I had in mind for "spring."  I am hoping for some fast melting or we may be wearing snow boots on Easter and hunting for eggs in the house!

Checking out all the snow!!

Thankfully, the boys never really seem to get tired of the snow and they have no idea that you can actually see the grass in some parts of the country right now. 

Luke is probably the best helper when it comes to shoveling.  Liam helps for awhile and he is a hard worker, but then he gets a bit sidetracked.

Sledding down our small hill on the side of the house.  The snow was a little icy from the melting over the weekend when the temps were warmer.  Then, it re-froze and had a thin layer of snow on top so it was really fast for the sledding until we got the extra 6-8 inches on Tuesday.

And the aftermath from playing out in the snow.  At least it is all dropped in the laundry room.
