Snow storm after snow storm after snow storm!

Snow started falling in the end of January on the 27th. Little did we know that the next 30 days would have nearly 2 feet of snowfall!

More fell on January 30th. Jared and Dani were at Nana and Papa's, and since it snowed and was going to turn to rain, Jared had to quickly put together a snowman (at 12:15 AM!). It took all of 5 minutes to build one almost as tall as Jared because of how dense the snow was.

He lasted over a week with the cold temperatures and into the next snow storm!

February 8 was the first of a very snowy month of February. The kids went to bed knowing they were going to have a great snow day! 

Jared strategically shoveled the snow into good piles for the kids. If you look closely, you can see the snowman from the storm a week and a half ago.

They went and knocked on Ava's door, and they built a giant snowman and 2 different igloos.

Another fun snow day tradition is for Dani to make cinnamon rolls. Yum!

Later in the afternoon, we made our way over to Dulle Park for some awesome sledding.

More fresh snow fell on February 10 on top of the snow that was already on the ground.

Another February 15 snow storm meant that we would have yet another snowman in the front yard next to the last one, which had already melted quite a bit. We did a bunch more sledding over at Dulle Park on the 16th.

and on the 17th, Jacob got his brothers and some friends together for an epic backyard snow football game.

February 19 had more fresh snow, meaning more sledding, in both the side yard

 

and over at Dulle, where Kate found one of her friends sledding too.

 

The creek had frozen over, so the goal was to sled all the way down past the shelter and onto the frozen creek.

By the 24th, a warm spell meant that almost everything had melted!
