A Shoveling We Will Go...

Outside our house there are piles of snow, piles and piles of snow! But we haven't been playing in it because it's too deep for Benjamin. He can't walk through it and gets frustrated after a few minutes. But the highlight of this winter for him has been shoveling. He loves to shovel (something I will remind him of come his teenage years)!

Last week I decided to take advantage of the one thing he wanted to do and use it to solve the problem of not being able to play in the yard. So out we went - to shovel. We shoveled to the tree in the yard, then to the light, then a little maze, and a little fort. Ben still won't really venture into the deep snow but at least he has a little track to run around! He even tried riding his bike on it... it wasn't too successful!
