Birthday in a Winter Wonderland

Last week Marko had a birthday.  It fell on a Wednesday, right smack in the middle of school and work obligations.  We had originally talked about driving to Fort Collins for dinner, but since Mark and I ended up having a meeting with our builder over there that afternoon, we decided to just eat here in Chey-Town.  By the time Mark made it home, it was late and everyone was hungry.  Mark's choice for dinner was Panda :)
 Grabbing some dinner and just relaxing would have been ideal for Mark, but we have a little celebrator [or 2] in the family that wouldn't hear of it. The cold dark days of winter, might be nothing to celebrate, but we decided to have our own little Winter Wonderland indoors.  We had a marshmallow toss, snowman building contest, and of course a snowball fight.  We also had Mark go ice fishing for his gift.  He was pleasantly surprised to catch money to buy a LIFETIME Wyoming fishing license [he was thrilled I tell ya].
Emmrey tried out her new puzzle maker and whipped up a couple of adorable puzzles to give Mark.  She LOVED watching him put them together and admire her handy work.

 What would winter activities be without Hot Chocolate?  ...and Frozen Custard?  We had a little "fire and ice" thing going on for our treat.
It was a fun way to celebrate this awesome dad......
his girlies sure do love him!!
