The snow has finally arrived!

It is a good thing that Samuel is warm blooded because he does not want to come inside! Yesterday a family that Scott has been doing carpentry for gave Samuel a set of long underwear. I am thinking that it will come in handy this winter. The older ones had to try out the snow shoes uncle Preston gave them a couple years ago. Problem #1 is that their feet are still too small:). Problem #2 is that there is definitely not enough snow to warrant them needing snowshoes yet:). Love their enthusiasm though!

Hot cocoa in their bellies and snuggling in a sleeping bag are a great way to warm up!

and the last birthday for our family in 2015!

Adelaide, her birthday basket and a sucker! I think she would have been happy with just the sucker:). She requested a carrot cake for her birthday. I made it later that day and it tasted delicious, but was not really a work of art. Thus, no picture... Amazing how fast those 4 years have gone by!

I know I am posting this a bit late, but better late than never.

He really liked his cheesecake and his police flashlight!
