Snow Fest!

This Saturday the city put on a snow fest. They have games, sleigh rides, and crazy things like a polar swim. They offered a free beanie for signing up. Are you crazy? They want you to swim in freezing water and all your offering is a beanie? It was about 20 degrees outside. We lasted a couple hours before the kids started complaining the couldn't feel their fingers or toes. It took us the rest of the day to thaw out. But it was worth it, we a had a great day.

They had several different horses & sleighs/wagons. We rode a couple of times. Ellie loved the horses.

The kids & mommy. Bill was helping out for one of his classes as a service project. So I had all three kids to myself.
Rachel & Jared snow bowling. They had real bowling balls & pins. Ellie got a spare. Too bad I didn't get a picture of it. The kids all got a free game of bowling at the local bowling alley.

Painting in the snow, Rachel was attempting to make a flower.

Jared was trying to write his name.
