a fickle winter

it has been a funny winter in these parts.  
one day it is cold and rainy and the next it is 70 degrees and sunny the kids are begging for sprinkler time.  
it keeps us on our toes.
but
our kids,
(especially our oldest)
LOVE winter.
the cold, cloudy days are great
but snow is the BEST.
so, after many weekends lately filled with trips to duke garden
and park picnics
we decided to head to the mountains for some real snow and even a little skiing.
the littles loved playing in the snow.  ada couldn't get enough of it.  she was rubbing it on her face and sprinkling it like fairy dust all over her hair.
why did we leave boston?
these kids love the cold! 

 lunch break!
and lettting baba go on a few runs alone!

 frolicing in the snow!

 poor hanna was sick with a fever all weekend.  

 ski instructor pop.




 blowing rock.




 her eyelashes can catch anything.  good thing her eyes are so protected!





 sledding during our two-hour delay on friday.

 a dusting of ice is the perfect surface for the disc.











hopefully we will get another snow day soon!
