Danny always has plenty of help when it comes to doing projects around the house. Anytime they see Daddy's tool box come out, both boys are very quick to get their own tool box and help him in any way they can!

The melting snow didn't cause our boys any heartache. They just decided to turn their snow boots into mud boots! While Danny and I were working at cleaning out the garage, the boys had a great time splashing in one of the mud puddles that formed from all of the snow melting off the roof. As you can see they got pretty messy!
If you've ever wondered how people sled when they get plenty of snow, but live in a county where there is quite literally no elevation change, now your question has been answered. Our friends the Claytons invited Danny and the boys over to do some "Panhandle sledding" which as you can see, involves attaching a swimming pool to a four-wheeler (or in this case, a six-wheeler) and pulling it down the street. The boys had a great time riding in the "sled" with their friend Katie while Matt pulled them up and down the street. 
Our snows out here tend to be pretty dry, but this one had lots of moisture and was great for building. But Danny wouldn't settle for just building a snowman, he decided to build an igloo. It was about seven feet tall on the outside and big enough inside for all of the boys to sleep comfortably - which they did on Saturday night! You can see more pictures of Danny's igloo (and other outdoor adventures) on his new blog www.griffisfamilyoutdoors.blogspot.com.
Snuggled down and ready for the night!
Wyatt enjoyed making snow angels. 
The boys had fun trudging through the deep snow. Thank goodness for snowboots!
Colter loved eating the icicles!
Wyatt has always loved things that spin, so when I saw this set of gears over the summer I bought them and put them away for Christmas. It was his favorite present and he worked hard to learn how to put it together himself. This is the first gear train he put together all by himself!
