Snow Castle ~ Field Trip Fridays

I'm not sure what signs of spring are in your neck of the woods, but here the daffodils and crocus are beginning to sprout, the days are lasting longer and my yard has completely melted of snow.  That is why last Saturday we pulled on our snow bibs, strapped on our boots, shoved on our gloves and headed up the nearest canyon for a snow day! Once we found our spot, we happened upon a totally awesome SNOW CASTLE (or in other words: snow cave!). A little boy's dream! We spent the next 3 hours digging around and playing in our snow castle. We drank hot chocolate (not as good as Hatch's) , looked at animal prints in the snow and of course became kings of our snow castle. Here are just a few of the highlights:

That is awesome. I never think to go up the canyon in the winter! I love baby's cute face in that hat!! :)

What a fun day! Your pictures are great! With too much sickness, we didn't get out in the snow enough this year. Your baby is sporting the same hairstyle as mine-so cute. Janae
