SNOW DAY!

One day last week we woke up to this view out our window:It was the best. It was the most snow London has had in 18 years and since I don't think there is one shovel or snow plow in this city, everything basically shut down- including the tube (underground, I know..weird). So Ty couldn't get to work that day.

I was giddy with excitement. It reminded me of snow days in elementary school. So we trekked out to the Heath with Cian and Adelaide and the boys in the strollers- which we really needed 4-wheel drive for.

Otie hated used to hate being in slings- but now that he's almost too heavy for them, he loves them- but only if he can peek over the edge to see what's going on

Wouldn't you know that is how it goes with slings and such. Hate them until you almost can't use them then you love 'em. Oh well He is sucha cutie pie. I miss you all. I guess I'll just have to plan another trip to England.

I LOVE it that you guys took that adventure and once in a life time opportunity to live in another country!! I've never been to London but I have this fascination with it. I've even thought of naming my baby it one day-ha! Yeah, the market is scary right now...even for nursing. They just made some serious changes at our hospital. We will all make it through it though!
p.s. to do cute little boxes google picasa and download the free program to your computer. It steps you through it. If you cant figure it out then ask me again and I'll give you better instructions! =)

Tim taught a group of kids from London ski lessons at Powder Mountain yesterday. They were all about the snow and loved it! Then they all ordered just chips for lunch. He had a blast with them. It made us think of you guys.
