My life is sweeter with him in it.

My second oldest just turned 10 yesterday and to celebrate we went camping.

We left Friday and got back yesterday so about 5 days.

He is my walking encyclopedia of dinosaurs so we went to Dinosaur Valley State Park.

I love that he knows the creationist view on dinosaurs also.

He knows more than I do for sure.

I am always learning new facts from him.

He will play all by himself in the dirt with just a few rocks for hours.

He thinks up games to play with clouds while we drive.

He is so easy to please.

I am glad I got to see his excited smile so much the last few days.

Happy Birthday.

You make life sweeter.

Snow!

We were so happy to get surprised with snow right before Christmas!!!

It was really wet snow so the kids were able to sled and throw snowballs(the painful kind, like rocks).

I noticed that I got snow stilts after a little bit.

HA!

Little bit was sure she wanted to ride with her big brother on this part even though he thought they would run into one of those cedar trees.

She got snow all over her face and hair…

Mostly she just wanted to eat snow the whole time.

My kids ate plenty of dirt that day I am sure.

The girls are not good at telling when they are getting a little bit cold so they wait too long to go inside or stop picking up snow.

This usually results in tears when we do go inside.

Glad we got to play in the snow in Oklahoma!

Do you get snow where you live?

Enjoy it or hate it?
