The day after the Sleep Over!!!!

Once we got the kids all up and fed....9:30 10:00ish breakfast of pancakes,bacon and eggs...we all went outside to shovel snow and build a snowman...this took a lot of convincing to get Caleb outside...he just wanted to stay in....but once he got out there he had fun ;o). The start of a snowman... Caleb didn't want to help with the building of the snowman...he wanted to shovel...
Sorry I put this one in twice and can't seem to delete it...no matter what Terriebeth says...I even tried that cute little eraser at the top....oh well he is still cute even if it is the same picture!

The snowball fight begins... Watch out Aunt Tabitha ;o) She is ducking and the snowball hasn't even left his hand yet!

Ok Time to start another snowman....the other one didn't get to far ;o)

Keep rolling them guys...your getting closer!

Caleb helping to shovel...He loved this and the fact that he had he own shovel that was just his size ;o)
Grandpa shoveling......


Caleb and Grandpa all done....Look at the smile on both of their faces!! They enjoyed shoveling the drive way together.

Putting the eyes on the snowman...

The finished snowman...Caleb helped by putting in a carrot ear ;o) See Aunt Tabitha hiding in there?


One more...smile big and say Frosty!!! It is a pretty cute little...I mean Little snowman ;o).
They were are really proud of it!!

Time for snow angels....How fun!

Caleb finally found a spot to lay down...but the dogs are like what are you all doing???


A view from the other side...trying to get it with out the dogs...but that didn't work...can you count 5 angels??? And see a little snowman in there?

Dogs going crazy because someone is walking down the street...don't worry Tim's got all 4 dogs under control. Way to go Tim!!
Angel's done here comes the snowballs again!! Fun, fun, fun!

Time to go in for some Hot Chocolate and popcorn after working and playing so hard....while were were eating we decided to watch Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer!!

Yep my dogs have to keep a close watch on all the kids...they were never far from any of them, the whole time they were here ;o)
Caleb's face says how I feel....I am exhausted!!! It was a fun time had by all...but taking care of 4 little ones is a lot of work even with Tim and Tabitha here helping!!! I really think it was because I was sleeping in the bedroom and was listening all night in case one of them woke up. But they slept like babies...until 4 and then Caleb just wanted a drink...but the sippy I had wasn't spill proof so I didn't want it on the couch so I just took him to bed with us! No need to worry about intruders...with the 4 dogs we would have known about it for a mile away...although it is funny...they don't bark at the same time...it is one at a time...like they are singing a song and they each have their own part. Ha,ha,ha!!
Can't wait to do it all again! Thanks to the parents for letting them come and Thanks to the kids for being so good!!

Caleb loves to shovel. He has always been the little helper. Even when we get the sled out it takes a lot of convincing to get him in. He'd rather shovel than play and pull than ride.

Ok I had to visit from Fran's blog, because I just love photos and yours are awesome :]

Made me remember my kids that age...seems like yesterday they'd go outside for fun rather than to rush to the car because it's cold.

Sigh.

Too cute and looks like a blast!!

You can visit anytime ;o) It was a lot of fun...but wore me out...I'm not as young as I used to be..ha,ha,ha! Not as old as I think I am either.

Yeah, good thing there is grandkids to remind us of the fun of playing in the snow instead of running for the warm car ;o)

John III told me that Caleb knocked over the first snowman? They had so much fun! Tatem keeps saying "remember the sleepover?" like it was such a looong time ago!

Ha,ha,ha!! I do remember something about Caleb knocking over one.

They did have a lot of fun! We had a lot of fun...Hollie said the boys are ready to do it again.

It was a loooooooong time ago...Ha,ha,ha!!! They are so cute!
