it's been a couple of snowy weeks lately. the kids and i spent president's day in breckenridge with some dear friends. we took the girls out sledding and marianne LOVED it. so with that snow heading east, we hit the hills here at home last week. so much fun. M was up and down the hill faster than i could snap photos, grinning and laughing the whole way. she only had one face-plant and it wasn't too bad...no blood or swelling and she took another run afterwards. henry seemed a little more indifferent. i couldn't even get a giggle out of him while zooming down the hill in my lap. but he had a blast throwing snowy ice chunks all over the sidewalk with his big sister on the trek back to the car.
don't even think for a second that we didn't cap it all off with hot cocoa...OH YES WE DID! a big hit with marianne, and again, a miss with the little guy. oh well, you can't win 'em all.

| pure bliss |
 |
| face-plant was a consequence of this leaning forward action, combined with sitting too far forward in the disc sled |
 |
| she thought it was hilarious to lay back and spin around |
 |
| casually striding up the hill |
 |
| hey guys, don't leave me here!!!! |
 |
| is it time to go home yet? |
 |
| ugh, not another run, marianne. i'm cold. |
 |
| cold, pink cheeks |
 |
| ahhh, this is the life |
