SNOW!!!!

Last year proved to be a disappointing winter in regard to snow…it just didn’t fall!

To our utter and shear delight, the snow-less trend broke this past weekend as we woke up to snow and lots of it!

It truly looked (and still does) like a winter wonderland outside, so much so that we had to get outside and enjoy it!

B was quick to get to work with his snow shovel, he shoveled any and every surface he could find…

B’s concentration continues to amaze us, oh to get into his little head.

Ella was like a puppy as she bounced from snowy spot to snowy spot…trying to catch snow balls that C and B threw her way.

Little A wasn’t quite sure what to think of her mittens and boots…the mittens didn’t provide a whole lot of dexterity while the boots hindered her beloved mobility a bit.

However, it wasn’t long before she warmed up to the idea of playing (or in her case, standing) outside.

Once her little legs got tired, A snuggled in with C and watched her big brother work.

I like how this photo captures the different boot sizes of these two…

It wasn’t long before B started to slow down…

And then all of us headed inside to warm up.

I snapped this photo to capture the ‘gear’ that was shed in effort to get warm…it was all over the kitchen, little puddles and all.

And of course,  playing in the snow wouldn’t be complete without hot cocoa, with marshmallows and a cookie…so we all indulged in a sweet bookend to such a simple wintry joy!

Be blessed.
