Our Snow Fort

Now that spring is on it's way, and what remains of our glorious snow fort are merely two small mounds of melting snow, I am finally posting pictures! As the saying goes, it's better late than never, right?!

It was a beautiful day......and what was supposed to be a family walk to the mail box suddenly became sidetracked into a snowball-rolling, turned snow-fort-constructing project...... followed by an all out snowball fight! The snow was perfect "packing snow", which is what we call it when it is wet enough to mold with, but not slushy. So much fun! The husband and I both felt like overgrown kids, and the children had the time of their lives....

......especially Big Brother!

Boots enjoyed the shelter of the fort for most of the duration of the snowball fight. Big Brother, however scaled the fort walls, and took to the open battle field. What a brave boy.....

These are certainly days to treasure..........
