Snowball Fight


Since Saturday, December 19th, we've had quite a bit of snow. The kids have really enjoyed it. Yesterday Terence's 2 best buddies, Riley and Liam (living in Tampa now), were here visiting. They are in town with their family for their Christmas break. Mia and Ali's friend, Sophia (she's a bit older), was also here with Keira (Riley and Liam's little sister). The house was full of laughter and joy. They all played so nicely together.

The day started with the 3 boys (plus one other friend, Peti), sledding across the street for almost 3 hours! After they came home and I fed them lunch, they decided to go back out again in the early evening. I got these videos of them in playing in the backyard.


It looked like they started to make a snowman but instead laid the big round snow mounds side-by-side. It looked like a snow centipede. It turned out it was a fort.


Then, the girls decided to go out and join them.


Which led to a great snowball fight.


Last night we had 6 kids (3 of our own and Sophia, Riley and Liam) sleeping here.
