Snow Fun

 




  




 













We received some fresh snow today so Sebastian and I went out to the roof top garden to play.  He had so much fun, I couldn't get him to come back inside.  It's amazing what a difference a couple of months can make.  I pulled him around the circle walk in his sled many times today.  He enjoyed sticking his arm out and collecting snow as we went around.  Previously he would only go around once or twice (or not at all) before asking to get off.  He also gleefully walked through the few inches of snow, climbing up a hill to clear the snow off of various objects.  Previously he needed help just walking through the snow.  Sebastian made his first snow angel.  He was excited because one of his favorite books depicts polar bears making snow bear angels.  I also made snowballs that he crushed with great vigor.

Happy New Year!

We Celebrated New Year's Eve with friends at the US Bank Eve celebration. The kids had fun exhausting the parents by running through the crowds and attempting to get lost. 



Happy New Year!

Who needs gifts when you can play with paper?

Christmas at the Capitol







The three cousins visited the Capitol to see the Christmas display, and were quickly captivated by the train running around the 30 foot tree. After they tired of the train, Sebastian led them on a running tour of the Capitol. (sorry for the poor picture quality, didn't get the settings right)

Another day in the snow...







A couple of days later we played in the snow again. This time we used snow shoes to make a path for the sled.
