Poor Jack. Yesterday none of his buddies could come over to play so he settled on playing with Moosie instead. As you can see-they had fun in the snow. Moosie is paying for it today, however. He is not a young pup anymore, but he was jumping and playing like the good ol' days. Jack loves anything outdoors, but even he didn't last very long. It sure was cold-and can you believe the snow? Wow-I will post more pics of that later. We had a fun snow day.

In the Backyard

So...tonight is nothing special-Just playin in the backyard. Micah loves being outside, as do the boys, and I am the official "Hot Chocolate Maker." That has seemed to work out well for us. :)
Jack thinks it is so cool to SEE a pic posted as soon as it happens...so this is just Dad and the Boys.

{First Snow!}

Oh-The Snow!!
The boys woke up this morning and were so excited to see snow on the ground!! Jack is already talking of putting up Christmas decorations and Charlie has been talking about his "list" for about six months or so!haha
I bundled them up (not without tears of course-Charlie hates bulky Anything!!)and outside they went. Moosie was part of the fun as well. Even though my baby dog is getting older(10 yrs.)he still acts like a pup in the snow. It was fun to watch the boys roll around in the fresh powder. They still have a fort in the back that Jack has been building since Charlie's age-just with twigs and anything else he can find to put in there-even a stump for seating!! He now has recruited Charlie for more man-power!:)

Micah is out hunting-but no such luck this morning. Jack went to Deer Camp yesterday and had a good time bonding with the Big Boys! Charlie can't wait until he is old enough to partake-Being a woman I am not sure what the appeal is but I guess it would be a bit like gabbing with the girls and shopping at the mall. Now, that sounds like fun!:) I have learned that being the momma to two boys I have to get used to sports and hunting and have found that when their little faces light up it doesn't matter what the activity is-Just as long as we are spending time together and having fun. (and of course, I have my own mom to do girl things with!):) The best of both worlds!

Enjoy the first snow. Play in the yard and don't forget the Hot Chocolate!!
