Snowed In

When I woke up this morning I found that there was a lot of snow, about one foot and three inches so far, because it was still snowing.

Look at all the snow!

 I got my snow clothes on as fast as I could after I ate breakfast. When I went outside, I was so excited. It hadn't snowed like this since we were at our old house, and it snowed about two feet. I thought I would first try and move around just to get used to it. Then all of a sudden Renn came out from under the porch and started to run towards me, but since the snow was so deep she  went slower so that that gave me a chance to try and get away (she still caught up with me no matter what). Then I went sledding with Lucy and Ellie. It was really fun, scary, exciting, and funny to watch the others going down a really fast slope. We had to make our slopes in certain places because there were so many trees in the way. By the way, most of the time we go sledding in the woods. My mom and dad came after a little bit to take some pictures and to see the slopes we made.

Ellie and I helped Renn get into the tree house.
(Renn got up the first three steps)

Renn was so excited when she got to the top.
(this was her first time in the tree house)

When we came back from the sledding I went to the back porch to see if there would be snow on it, and there was. It was a whole big pile of snow that was about three to four feet high. I instantly started to dig it out. When I was done it looked pretty good. I had made three entrances to come in and out of the igloo. Then I went inside to have some hot cocoa and warm up. The next day the snow was still there, but my igloo wasn't, it had fallen down over night because it snowed just enough to make it fall over. After I had been waiting outside I didn't know what I should do, then Ellie came out and asked me if I wanted to help her build an igloo. I said, "Yes."  When we finished it looked better than the one I made on the back porch. I guess because two people made it instead of one. 

This was very fun to play in.

We went into it when we were done and admired it. We took a little nap in it after a little while. Then when it started to get dark, we went inside and got into our pajamas and watched a movie. We had a blast and hope that it snows like this next year.
