Last of the Snow?

I was thrilled when the day after we got back from our Indiana trip we got snow!

It is hard to believe this was last week when yesterday was in the 80’s.

We are definitely happy about snow in this house!

I might have been pouting a bit that we would probably not get anymore snow and then we got some!

He thought his breath was funny.

Living in Oklahoma means I am pretty happy about any winter weather we get.

We got one more chance at snow ice cream!!!

I would have this at least once a week if I lived up north!

So good!

Do you still have snow where you live?

30 Day Project ~Day 1 “Snow”

02/03/2014 Danielle Huddleston 2 Comments

I am doing a 30 day project with a friend.

One picture a day of our kids.

Although I do take pictures of my boys a lot, I want to be intentional about the shots I am getting.

I chose the above shot as my pic for the day but I think I like the one below better.

He was so excited to see snow outside his window.

Big beautiful flakes.

I kicked my boys out of the house.

I will admit I had been pouting a bit about the end of winter coming and the likelihood we would not see anymore snow.

We might get more tomorrow also!!!

I am going to embrace this winter weather while we get it!

Those 100 degree temps will be here before we know it.

Hiking

Hiking in Minnesota at Christmas time

01/09/2014 Danielle Huddleston Leave a comment

It was a little chilly in Minnesota this Christmas but we still had some nice days to hike!

This was our first hike.

Maplewood State Park Woodland Trail.

You get pretty warm wading through thick snow!

I made Nick go first so he had the hard part of breaking the trail.

That is the nice person that I am…

Since it was a short hike, we hiked up to the Halloway Hill Overlook also.

One of these days this hike will seem easy.

In that day I will know I have turned into a superhuman…

The view is always worth it!

I might not be thinking that while hiking up that hill but once at the top I am good!

Our boys, two of my nephews, and my mother in-law joined us for a trip to the Tamarac National Wildlife Refuge.

We went on the Old Indian Trail.

The visitor center was closed for renovations.

I am looking forward to checking it out the next time we head up!

It was a bit of a rough hike for some of them but we made it!

It would just feel wrong if I did not hike while up in Minnesota!

Such a beautiful place!
