A Day in the Snow!

We went for the day to the Snow Play Area north of Flagstaff.  Our kids love to sled and play in the snow.  We try to get up there once a year.  They love it.  Here Seth and Jared are zooming down the hill.  Toward the end of the day, Jared was going down backwards.  Crazy Fun!
Samantha decided to brave sledding by herself.  No worries for her.  She spent alot of time throwing snowballs at her mother and building a snowman.
Daddy had alot of fun trying to speed down the hill fast and at the same time make his children scream with terror and excitement.  I think he accomplished this many times.  At the start of the hill my kids had looks of fear and then smiles at the end when the came to a halt.  Here is Tank having one of Dad's Wild Rides.  Whoo EEE  Whoo!
Hello Snowbunny!  If you look carefully Hayley brought her WebKinz Hedgehog with her sledding.  She has it zippered up in her jacket.  Hayley loves adventure, she is up for anything.  I love that about her.
Emilee had a great time, until her clothes were soaked and her feet frozen.  After that she was done and ready for the heat in the truck.   She was fun to watch because she attempted several times to sled down the hill without a sled, just on her tummy.  Fun until she was soaked and frozen.  All and all it was a fantastic day!

Jerome - Ghost Town

We went to Jerome and went to the Ghost Town.  We love Jerome and go pretty often.  Our kids love looking at unusual things and in this case old things.
This is Matt's favorite thing to see. This is an old camper.  Me-I am grateful for our camper thankyou very much.  This camper is definately someone's invention.

Here is proof that my children have a mother.  This is in front of the old mine shaft.
I have pictures of each of my kids playing dead.  For some reason they all love to get into the coffin and pose for the camera.  Here Tank is playing the part.

Happy Valentines Day 2009

Valentines Weekend we decided to go camping.  We parked at the Dead Horse Ranch in Cottonwood.  A really neat place with hiking, parks, lakes etc.  We were 10 minutes from Jerome and about an hour from the snow. My kids love any holiday that they can enjoy candy. Here they are diving into their bags.
We were able to go on a few hikes.  My kids love to be outdoors and hiking is something that we all enjoy.  On this particular hike they found an old abandoned cabin.  Everything abandoned is given the title "Scary Witch House", which just adds to the excitement.
