At last! some snow!

Maelie made some plans with her friends Xavier and Tristan to play today. It has not stopped snowing in two days (at last! we were out of snow). So we invited Naomie to come over as well and we all went sliding! It was absolutely gorgeous out there!

Here are the kids getting ready to go down....



The girls tried their new Zipfy's! They got these at Christmas.



Thankfully the Zipfy's are very light to bring back up the hill!



Off we go again!!



They tried a few rides on Xavier's sled as well...



The 4 of them headed off to a clean area to snack on a bit of "clean" snow! Yum yum!!



After about an hour and a half, we came back home. Naomie had to leave as soon as we got back because she had a supper to go to. Tristan, Xavier and Maelie sat down for a little snack and hot chocolate with marshmallows....



Yum yum......!!



It was a beautiful carefree day!

At bowling this morning, Maelie also found out that she placed 3rd in the 4-Step to Stardom tournament team. This tournament is a team of 4 that competes regionally, and if they win, they eventually can end up at the nationals!! Let's hope the girls make it that far!!! For the next few months they will be practicing A LOT. I am VERY excited for Maelie to have this opportunity!!
