More Snow

We were blessed with an additional 3 inches of snow on Wednesday night. If you know me, you know I do mean "blessed". I love the snow, but hate the cold. Too bad they seem to come together. The boys have been out at least once a day, if not twice the last 4 days. Dan took them to a park yesterday to go sledding. We've done some sledding down our next door neighbors driveway, but it's not the same as a big hill. They thought it was mucho fun! We tried to make snowmen today. We managed a small one and then later Maicol and Juan worked together to make a larger one. It's amazing that for children who have no experience with snow they know alot about it. Making snow angels, snowball fights, and making snowmen. Maicol sent Juan to collect things for the snowmans face, arms and buttons. It was very cute. We're expecting rain for the next few days, so this was the last day to play in the snow for awhile.

The snow has been our big excitement the last few days. We had our first post placement visit from the social worker this week. That went ok, I guess. The boys also had their first visit to the doctor for physicals. We need to get their labwork done before we go back in two weeks to complete the second part of their assessment. That should be great fun. :) From the experience of having their TB test placed, it sounds like Juan will be the most resistant. Oh well, some things you just have to do.

Everyone is in bed and asleep. Time for a little rest for the Mama and Papa.

Hi, The snow pictures are cute. I didn't get this blog until today. This computer isn't working right. I might have to take it in to have it looked at. I'm really glad you are having so much fun with the boys. Love and prayers, Mom

Cute, cute, cute! That snowman is adorable, too. I am green with envy over your snow. Our chances for a white Christmas are next to zero, according to the weatherman. :(
