Santa droped by to give Grams a kiss

Dusty's cousin got stuck in the snow

So they helped her get out

Dusty started a snowball fight, It came time to leave and I couldn't find him anywhere figured no way he would be out in the snow...YUP HE WAS. This is when he used little Carly as a snowball shield.

Dusty and Jess snowball FIGHT

Still snowballs

Aunt Lish came and said WE're DONE

AHH the fun begins here....Have you ever tried to find a needle in a haystack? Me either but how bout a set of car keys in 6 inches of snow? YEAH WE got to last night!

Uncle Tom with his head lamp wanted to make sure he could see what he was looking at.

Searcing the snow

After the snowball fight Becky and the kids couldn't find the car keys. Jessica had them last right before the snowball fight started and then told us all that she had lost them in the snow. So then we started our seach party which included a several rakes and snow shovels

After about 45 minutes me and Jaime were freezing and not much help for the search party so we suggested we go and buy a metal detector. Word of advice Target and Walmart DO NOT carry metal detectors so we headed back. While we were gone the cops showed up?? MIssed out on that picture :(

Luckily "GOOD OL KURT" had a metal detector for us to borroow. Randy started first and no luck.

Dusty then took over and after 2 hours of digging through snow guess what my hubby and hero of the night found??
THE KEYS!

MY KEY HERO!

And to think they were right here the whole time.
