Snow and Beavers

We actually had enough snow on Monday and Tuesday to play in it! The kids enjoyed sledding and throwing snowballs! We took a walk in the snow down to the end of our street where there is an empty lot that has a creek running through it. We had not been down there in a while and we wanted to see if there was any evidence of the beavers! We have seen some things that led us to believe that there are beavers in the area, but after this trip, there is no doubt! It was really neat and exciting! (I know, it doesn't take much to get me excited! I'm a stay at home mom and I don't get out a whole lot!) :)


Beckett got these cool snow shoes from Susi a long time ago and this was the first time he has been able to use them!
Helen all bundled up!
The beavers have definitely been here!


More evidence of the beavers!

What a cool beaver dam! It would be really neat if you all could watch them while they are working. Glad to know you all had so much fun playing in the snow. We just had a dusting. Hope the rest of your week is just as exciting!
