Missing Home

My little brother sent me these pictures the other day. I've never really liked the snow that much, well not since I learned how to drive, but these pictures really made me miss home. When I was younger my dad would make a pile in the backyard so we could slide down it in our sleds. There hasn't been much snow for the past few years, but the one year my girls could really enjoy it--and we're stuck in Philadelphia. Mind you, I don't miss the yucky roads, but I do wish my girls could enjoy the benefits of a good snow hill.

Notice the large pile the trucks left in the middle of the road. I'm not sure how my parents get out of their driveway when they do this. It is funny though when my mom goes plowing through one of those hills with her van. Granted, none of them have been this big, but you'd be surprised by what she can do with that van.
More pictures of our beautiful Main Street. Go a little farther down this direction and you get to my aunt and uncle's house. Go a few steps the other direction (previous picture) and you get to my grandma's house. Oh how much I miss Rexburg!

Miriam & Shay would love sliding down the Menan Butte or even being pulled around on the sled.
