Fun in the snow!

Ok, so Ben LOVES his four wheeler! But he especially loves it when he gets to ride it in the snow. He thinks it's so cool to watch snow fly up from the wheels. Oh, typical boy! I got these shots on a sunny-with-blue-skies Colorado day with a little new fallen snow. It was a gorgeous day!

back, crying and Ben is just as smiley as can be!!

Florida!!

Yes, this is Florida. And yes, we wore jackets and hats almost the WHOLE time. We

followed Mario on a trip there and made a fun vacation out of it. We met up with some of

my family and then went to Sea World, Disney World, and the Kennedy Space Center. The weather was awful. We had 2 days of sunshine and warmth out of the 7 days we were there!Thank goodness it was for the days we went to Disney and Sea World! Ben got to feed dolphins at Sea World and had a great time at Disney World. As for us, we needed a vacation from our vacation when we got home!!

Looks like we're still in Montana!

At Sea World

Happened to be nice enough on the two days we
needed it most! So for Sea World and Disney World, we were able to
wear short sleeves !

This was so fun!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

So this is the one sledding experience we've had so far in Colorado. We probably would have done a bunch of sledding in Montana by now! We have only had 2 substantial snows and the snow was gone the next day. We are definitely not used to that! So I got a few shots of Ben sledding and enjoying the snow. He loves it! I, on the other hand, could not wait to get back inside for hot chocolate!!
