I know, we thought we escaped the snow when we moved here, but it reared its ugly head the first couple of days. The kids didn't seem to mind. The boys even tried a little croquet in the fluff. 
The girls made the snow into suds they could paint onto the driveway. 
Nothing better than snack time, something we did lots of! 
The kids all played really well and made great memories together. 
The local bounce house was a must and everyone jumped, slid, and goofed off for hours.
Our good friends loaned us their Super Mario Wii game, which was a big hit with Evan, and everyone for that matter. It even kept all of us nostalgic adults up until the wee hours of the night battling through the worlds to save the princess. It's my favorite game EVER."Wukie" & "Claire Bear" would go off and play beautifully on occasion. This was one of those moments. Two peas in a pod!
The main event was a Nickelodeon show featuring Kai-Lan, Dora, The Wonder Pets, & The Backyardigans. Everyone watched mezmorized as they watched the singing and dancing characters come to life. A definite success.
I was so proud of Linda and I for braving the many events with the kids during the week while our husbands were hard at work. Props to us!! And props to the guys for being such dedicated providers!! (notice Evan who appears in both adult pictures, that boy is hilarious)
The time flew by and before we knew it we were waving goodbye to the back of their van. All in all it was a perfect visit with lots of laughs and new discoveries (Linda discovered a light we didn't know existed in our ceiling fan which is now lovingly called the "Linda Light"), so thanks for making the trek to see us Jelinda family and come again soon!
