Snow Day!

First day of spring, eh?
 
Last year this time, it was 80 degrees and we were putting up the trampoline early.
 
 
This year, we got a huge mid-March snowstorm dumping 12 inches (so far) and giving us the perfect excuse to play outside.
 

 
The kids are getting great at cross-country skiing.

 
But Lucy discovered that nordic skis don't work as well as her alpine skis going down hills. So skis soon got traded for sleds.




 
My favorite sled is this huge orange toboggan we call "the bus" because we can cram it full of people. It always goes fast and far, especially when Gavin is driving. But I love my Mad River Rocket too.
