Fun in the snow

Some random pictures of the Konlock’s enjoying the winter season.

Why do children love to be buried in things. Snow, sand, dirt, mud, water… it’s a mystery.

The dog loves the snow even more than the children.

In the far back part of the yard the children discovered a pretty thick layer of ice buried under the snow. They thought it would be a good idea to clean all the snow off and go ice skating with their snow boots.

I would say that there is a good two inches of ice that I am standing on. We had a huge rain and then an immediate drop in temperature followed by a snow storm. No time for the water to go anywhere.

I think the dog may have seen a squirrel or a jogger or really anything or nothing at all, because she’s crazy.

Where was this snow on Jack’s birthday?

Sadly, this picture was taken of Andy right before he ran over his 6 year old child who is just ahead of him on the hill with his snow tube, but like the brave child he is, Alex cried for a bit and then asked if he could still sled some more.

They are little troopers when it comes to getting back up the hill with their sleds.

No he isn’t going to hit that tree. We were hiking over to the other part of the hill and he was trying to sled down the path, but since it was pretty level it didn’t work out too well.

A good day of fun. Messing around a bit before heading home. You can’t tell but just past the bench on the left is a small lake. The danger thin ice sign is just above the kids.
