SNOW!!

I know what you're thinking, Tori is still alive? Yes I am, sometimes just barely. Things are just a different kind of busy around here. I've been thinking about it lately, trying to figure out what it is, and I think it's probably all Pyper's fault! :) Honestly though, she's at that stage where it's hard to put her down and when I am able to leave her for a bit, I have to do "house" things and stuff for the studio. Anyway, to the one or two of you who read this blog, sorry. Lots has happened in our little home since the middle of December. Hopefully I'll be able to post a bit about it. But here's what's going on now.
Price has had snow for the past week! It's been crazy. It started Monday night (should have left Tiff's house a bit sooner. Drove 20-30 mph down Price canyon) and we have had snow everyday since. It's not been too fun taking the girls to school every morning in it, but we're all still alive so I guess it's okay. I've also gotten some pretty good excercise shoveling snow here at the house and the studio, so that's been okay too.
Yesterday, all the girls, Garth and myself were able to play outside in all the lovely snow for a bit. We did get some good snow for snowman buliding. Tell me what you think. . .
Garth got a little carried away I think and we had to get Taylor to piano lessons before we could finish the face. Rylie and Garth are going to go out today, so hopefully they will get her face finished. (They did make some changes to her, I'll post the pictures tomorrow.)
Here is Taylor's little Hawaiian girl. She still needs a face too. (The snow started to really fall just then.)
Taylor plopped down in the snow and Garth started throwing snow on her. Next thing you know, he's got her packed in a pile of snow. He told her she couldn't bust out of it, so she had to crawl. Well the snow had hardened around her, so Garth had to did her out, but still kept the "cave".
I think everyone had a good time. Pyper helped me make the bottom of the snowman until she fell asleep and went inside, Camryn had fun until she realized there wasn't a bium, bium to ride on with Daddy (snowmobile) and the older two had fun snowboarding and making snowmen. It was a GREAT day!

Lol..... the best part is... you'll have to see my SNOWMAN pictures to really understand. See, we couldn't go with the traditional snowMAN either! Tianna wouldn't allow such nonsense. I loved the pics... jealous of how much snow you have. We got jipped this week! Anyway, love ya and hope you enjoyed your chicken salad... I want some! :D

These are the best snow girls ever! It is so fun to keep up with family through FB and blogs; since we hardly ever get to see each other.
