Snow in the South...

Not too long after we returned from Utah, South Carolina received some snow.  It started snowing in the night and you could hear the kids frolicking in it outside.  It was about 10pm when we got a knock on the door begging for Nash to come out and play....umm no he is asleep!

So the next day we broke out the gloves and hats for the neighborhood since no one had anything to play in the snow with.  We also had to teach them how to make a snowball, and snowman!


 Boogie Boards were used as sleighs!









 Our neighborhood is SUPER fun!


Carl Bloch Exhibit...

Our last day in Utah we had the awesome opportunity to see the Carl Bloch Art Exhibit at BYU.  




We had to take turns with Asa as he was pretty crazy and didn't want to be reverent while looking at the beautiful paintings. 


Nash however was so fun to walk around with.  Louie the Elf brought him a lot of the pictures that were on exhibit and he was able to tell us the stories...who says the Elf on the Shelf isn't worth the work!


Midway Ice Castle...

We made our way to Midway to see the famous ice castle there.  Asa decided to get sick just as we pulled into the parking lot.  Good thing I had some snow pants and a coat for him because he had nothing else on under them! Brrr!


 I had every intention of editing these pictures to make them look really great.  However I am so behind on this blog...those intentions are thrown out the window!
 This picture is such a classic Nash and Asa picture.  Nash is pulling Asa way from "danger" and Asa is screaming...





 
 We were there at the beginning of the season. I am sure it was huge in weeks to follow.



 










The boys had a ton of fun exploring the little caverns.  Very fun experience!

Ice Fishing...

The boys braved the cold and went ice fishing.  Nash was so excited to go...



 Serious business with the drill.  Troy always has fun toys!









Tonya's dad was the expert fisherman!
