Snow days

Well we have had two weeks of snow and it has been wonderful. This is the Swedish winter that we love. The snow makes everything so beautiful. It is fun to see the many animal tracks through our yard. Most of all it is great to have the sun out during the days with the beautiful white landscape! Thank you Lord for these two weeks.

Samuel has exhausted himself playing outside. I (Laurie) have several bruises from sledding and wrestling with my son in the snow. Andreas has really good snowball aim and we are all very happy that we finally received a Swedish winter. It is melting now and rain is coming back. However, so is Spring! We have moved the clocks ahead one hour and so the evenings are light and will continue to get lighter. Samuel will soon have to learn to go to bed in complete daylight (that will be interesting). Thank you whoever invented blackout shades!

Enjoy the pictures, sorry I forgot to turn this one, but Samuel thought he could fill Daddy's shoes!



Attack!

Samuel thinks that rolling in the snow is a new Olympic sport. He has no fear. He has thrown himself down several hills! Luckily the snow was deep and soft.

I don't have long enough arms to take these pictures.
