The day before we went sledding happened to be Claire's 8th birthday. Here's Emma and the Birthday Girl. Happy Birthday, Claire!
Running back up the hill to try again, it took a lot to wear these girls out!
Emma and Katie.
Rebekah is not much for thrill rides of any kind. Having Dad pulling her around the park in her little purple sled was much closer to her idea of fun than actually going on the hill. Sometimes I love that about her.
Especially with her sisters somersaulting and catapulting themselves down the hill, it's comforting to know that at least one of the girls will be right by my side.
We have a thin foam sled that Alyssa kept insisting that she could stand on and board down the hill. Most of her attempts went just like the slideshow below:
Lately Rebekah has been asking a lot of questions about where she was born and we were sledding close to her hospital, so we stopped by.
I was surprised that they let us walk through the labor and delivery hallway and peek in the window of the nursery. Rebekah was so curious about everything and it brought back wonderful memories to be in the place where my baby was born. 
We finished up the day at an educational fair where the girls drew pictures on a paper tablecloth. It looks like they had something other than winter on their minds.

you guys do the most fun things! i love that you took rebekah to her birth place! ;)
Oh Jessica, you are such a great mom, and you have such a beautiful, beautiful family. The snow pictures were so fun, and how sweet that Rebekah is so curious about where she was born. Also cute that you have at least one little buddy out of your three girls who choses to play it safe and stick by your side. Wish I could say I have one of those too, but I'm afraid I don't. =( It's actually quite scary.
I've been hearing about all the snow the midwest was getting and couldn't wait to see your pictures of it!! Did you get any snow days?? :) We haven't had any snow since the end of December, would enjoy just one more round of it before spring arrives!!
Hey, Michelle, yes ~ we've gotten a ton of snow this week :-) Must be one of the biggest snowfalls on record. We are on snow day #2 today. I know the snow is causing some problems, which of course isn't good, but I'm loving these "relaxed, got no place to go" days and the extra time at home with the girls. Hopefully I'll get a chance to post a few pics tonight or tomorrow.
