First Snow Day!!

Well, we had just about 1-2 inches of snow fall over the weekend.  Here? Schools close.  Which means, no school no MOPS, but LOTS OF FUN!!!  In Minnesota where my brother lives, they got 23 inches. I'm sure their kids went to school.

The kids and I have already tackled some crafts, played board games, built forts with the couch cushions and gone outside in the 3 degree weather. Okay, it was really 17 degrees, but with the windchill, they said it was 3. Same thing.

The kids loved making snow angels, something Monkey has been wanting to do for weeks!  She talks about when we go to FL, she wants to make sand angels. Not sure where the fascination came from, but she's enjoying it!  She even tried to make rug angels, but it doesn't really work out! :)

So glad I took them out for a bit in the snow! They would have been so upset if it had melted away before they got the chance.  Doubt it will happen soon as it is supposed to be a low of 9 tonight, but I still loved seeing their happy faces!  Even happier when they came back inside and drank their hot chocolate and relished in their fun times outside!
Not liking the layering effect. I think it's kinda cute!
So ready to go out!  When did this kid get so old and handsome?
My fun and adorable munchkin!!
I told them before we left the house that there would be photo ops and they must obey and smile for them.
So glad they were listening!! :)
Ready to make snow angels!

So excited!!!



 

And add-in the customary snot running down the nose shot.  I had a pocketful of tissue to ward off such pictures (yes, I am a little OCD), but alas I missed one.  Guess I can't be perfect!
