One of my greatest joys in life is my girls. I love them and they are a lot of fun. (They have a lot of hair too! That's for another day!) Anyway, Madalyn started the project and got too cold, but Abi and I worked and built a snow fort for about 3 hours on Friday morning. It was awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed spending the time with Abi and we built a great fort together. After we were done (and getting hungry because it was around 1PM), we had a snowball fight, just me and her. I don't think that she realized the value of the snow fortress till we started the snowball fight. Then it clicked. I think that she thought I was just building her a playhouse or something. Anyway, we had a great time and it was a blast. As most of you know, I love winter and snow and in Oklahoma, we don't get too awful many snows like that, so this was really something. I think that our final count was around 9-10 inches, so we had a lot of fun. Just thought I'd share the pics and the memories made.
We also went sledding on Saturday with Grandpa Keller. I've got some pics of that too, but I've got to get them off of the camera. It was fun. Madalyn even went daredevil on me and tried a sled run with a 5 foot drop off a snow drift. She just laughed right through it. It was a good time and such a good snow. Abi and Maddy ere really trucking down the slope and I was a bit surprised at their joy over speed. Guess it runs in the family! Ha!
Thank God for the snow. Good times and good memories! Feel free to comment and tell me about your snow experiences.

Couldn't help but think of the scene early in "Where the Wild Things Are" (movie) where Max builds a snow fort. Sounds like you had a great time!
Of course, here on the Gulf coast, any amount of snow is a rarity!
I remember that too. And let me tell you, it was a GREAT TIME!
That is funny Pastor Eric....I know I would have thought it was a playhouse or clubhouse. Must be a girl thing;)
I am not exactly sure I feel the same way about the snow as you. My favorite weather is 80 degrees. However, I did really enjoy this past snow fall. We went sledding down Constitution.....the best is the video of Joshua screaming weeeeee all the way down!
I agree, GREAT MEMORIES!
