Scavenger Hunt Sunday {1•13•13}


Outside

This week it has been extremely cold and hazy. Our daytime high temperatures are below freezing, which means we really don't want to spend much time outside. I did run and grab my camera when I saw the way the sunset was coloring the haze. The past day or so we finally got a snowstorm to clear up the haze. Most of Utah got completely buried, but somehow we hardly got any snow. That didn't prevent us from going sledding again!

Backside

This is the first year that we have ever gone sledding in the winter, and the boys LOVE it. They have learned that falling off the sled onto your backside is just part of the fun!

Little Things

 Here are my three little things. They may be little, but they are the biggest part of my life. It makes me happy to think that some of their best childhood memories will be of the little things that we all did together... like sledding! I have so many fun pictures from our sledding adventure today! I will have to share them soon.

A Cup of...

...hot chocolate! After we went sledding this morning the boys wanted to have some hot chocolate. Luckily I managed to find some in the cupboard because it was perfect for this prompt.

Reflect

We went for a drive down by Utah Lake, and although the lake is mostly frozen there were some ponds at the edge of the lake that were steaming because they were warmer than the cold, cold air. I love the way the colors of the sunset were reflected in the water of the pond.
