Overnight

 I seem to have neglected our little blog here lately. The children had a lot of fun at Gramma and Grampa's this week and were sad to leave. They love the extra space, the quad rides, the sled hill, and the chickens. I went and picked them up mid-week and spent the night. It's always nice to go home.

We spent a lot of time outside Thursday afternoon. The snow had all but melted and the children begged me to pull out their bikes. They played hard and the sun felt good on our faces. When we went to bed last night the wind was beginning to blow. Hyrum made me promise to take them for a bike ride on the trail the next day. I knew as I fell asleep with the wind howling at my bedroom window that I might not be able to keep that promise. 

Sure enough, we woke this morning to a heavy, wet snow fall. As soon as the sun hit the backyard the children suited up and headed out. Joseph thought it was pretty funny to ride his trike in the snow.

As the afternoon went on the snow gradually disappeared. The littles were soaked from head to toe and grinning ear to ear. This Alberta weather is crazy sometimes! Never a dull moment.
