snow much fun!

It is a school holiday and I took a vacation day so Bug and I could have some fun.  We started bright and early with a visit to Mrs. Patty.  She cleaned our teeth and told bug that he has magnificent teeth!  She told me that bug will need braces, so he now has an appointment for February with the orthodontist to see what is needed and the cost.

 

We got home from the dentist office and packed up our things for a trip to the snow tubing slope with friends. We had so  much fun last year we knew we wanted to come back again this year.  The boys were so excited to be going snow tubing again. 

Heading up the hill, tubes in tow.

on the "magic carpet" that takes us to the top of the hill.

Ready to go.  This picture is still early in the day because Bug is still all bundled.  It was supposed only be 36 degrees F today (4 degrees above freezing), but it definitely got warmer. The boys were shedding layers by mid morning.

mid point, and coats are unzipped, gloves are coming off and everyone has been in the gravel at the bottom of the hill a few times.

J, N, Bug and Me- the too much fun crew!

by all the rules-

J and the boys heading down- the boys wanted to be hooked up with one of us all the time.  This time, I got to go alone.

down the hill they go.  By this time, the slopes were very crowded.   You can see the crowd of people to the left in this picture.

definitely late in the fun, no coat, no hat, no gloves and still sweating.

we are going up there- second to last run of the day.

resting momma- last run for the day.

happy family

the look of love.

 

We were at the slopes for 3 hours and then got some lunch before heading home.  Once home, Bug and I were worn out from all the fun.  It was a lazy afternoon around our house.  It looks like Bug will not have school tomorrow because of the snow coming tonight.  Lucky boy gets to play again tomorrow and it is back to work for me.

 

Love and hugs,
