Let it Snow...



We were finally able to enjoy some snow here at home today. Although, we got a couple of inches the snow mixed with sleet early this morning so it made for an interesting mix. The boys were thrilled when the saw the snow falling last night. They couldn't stop talking about how it was everywhere this morning wheWe were finally able to enjoy some snow here at home today.

We did make it outside and the boys had high hopes of a snow ball fight but the snow doesn't pack well. They did make some super snow angels and had fun throwing snow at each other.




Update: We made it back outside this afternoon. The sleet/snow had stopped falling and the boys had a wonderful time playing. They prepared for a snowball battle but stacking pieces of the snow together. Finally, we declared it was time to battle and Brett had a strategy of allowing Breandan to get him first using all of his "snowballs"... Brett continued to collect pieces of snow ensuring he would always have a supply. It was a good battle for everyone involved.







The dogs even got into the action today- they went for a walk this morning and loved the snow. Red Rose, the youngest, enjoyed the snow the most- as she liked leaping up and down in the snow. In the one picture, you can even see Daisy enjoying a taste of snow from behind our gate-
