Last Snow (We Hope)

It's April and this week we got what we hope is our last snow of the season. Never can tell, however.

Collin and Hayley got in some good snow time on our backyard hill.

Rolling a really big snowball.

Hayley likes to eat her snowball.

"It's mine! All mine!"

A few days after the snowfall there was still a big, ugly, dirty pile of the stuff in the island in the middle of our court.

Collin on the snow.

Time to dig!

Collin and Hayley made a slide in the snow pile.

Down she goes!

More shoveling.

Our dog Kaylee got into the act. 

Collin cut seats into the snow. Comfortable but a little cool.

Last Snow

Here are some pics of Collin and Hayley playing in what we hope was our last big snow a few weeks ago.

Old Friends

Sherry's old friend Debi, her daughter Jennifer, and grandson MJ came over to have dinner and visit. Tof and gang were here too. Lots of kids, fun time.

Collin and Kaylee (Video)

Let's try something different. Here's a short video of Collin playing with Kaylee -- listen to him laughing!

A Boy and His Dog

Collin and our dog Kaylee are fast friends, as you can see from these pictures. In the second one, Collin is handing Kaylee our wireless phone -- is the call for her?
