Snow Day!

Well, it sure didn't take us long to get out in the snow this morning! Landon woke up about 7:15 and we took him straight to the front door. His response to the beautiful 10 inches of snow in our yard, "WOW! Lot of snow! Let go sit in it!!!!" And as soon as we got ready, that's exactly what he did! haha!

 I put our bread, milk, and eggs to good use by making from French Toast for breakfast, and we quickly ran to our rooms to start putting on layer after layer of clothes. I grabbed my camera and out the door we went! Landon, of course, had to get 2 tractors to play with in the snow! He was grinning ear to ear the entire way down the driveway. Someone had already been out driving in the snow this morning, so we walked in those tracks to try and keep from falling. The snow came up to Landon's knees, and bless him he's not the most graceful little guy, so just from walking to the end of the street and back he was covered! And I was too, thanks to the boys ganging up on me with snowballs :-/

We tried our darndest to make a snowman, but the snow is so fluffy that we only managed to get the bottom 2 balls rolled before we needed to head in and warm up. After some hot cocoa with tiny marshmallows, caramel cake, and sitting in front of the space heater (yeah, we need a fireplace bad!), we finally thawed out...and it didn't take much convencing for Landon to want to go back outside to finish our snowman and make snow angels with me! :) We have had a fabulous day in the snow, and from the looks of it, we will get to make a repeat of it tomorrow!

Snow! Let's go sit in it!

Beautiful.

Bundled up and ready to go!


I love it!

10 inches!



So cute!

Landon was thrilled, I was freezing!

Going to see if anyone wants to come out & play!

This. Is. Hard. Work!

Covered!

Making out snowman

This is what the dogs thought of the snow...

HELP!

Our attempt at snow angels. Landon could get down, just couldn't move his arms, legs, or get up! haha!

I had no problem! :)

My little snowlady.

Landon had just knocked down Josh's snowman...

But Josh got his revenge! ha!



My snowball is out of control!
