Snow Day

Today was Joseph's birthday, and I have pictures of that, but it takes a long time to load videos, so maybe I will get around to that tomorrow. In the mean time, here is a really cute one of Lizzie playing at the park in the snow today.

And one of Simeon. After we played at the park we took them down the street and let them sled down the hill to the river, and then they played on the ice. They really liked playing on the ice. It was neat to see down to the bottom and be able to see where everything froze at different depths. The river is only about a foot deep, so it was frozen solid to the bottom. Lots of people use it as the "street" for their snow machines now. It's awesome that people drive those and four wheelers around. Ahhh....I love Alaska!
Poor Simeon, the snow was hip deep on him, so he was exhausted by the time we got home. Wading through all that snow wore him out. He slept for three hours, and he doesn't usually take naps now.
