Snow...again!

Since our last snow day was so disappointing, the kids were thrilled to get a really good snow storm. Of course, it would come in on a day that they were already out of school. It was definitely the best/biggest snowstorm I have seen while living in Georgia. I think the reports were about 3 1/2" of snow--and it was perfect for making snowballs and snowmen and just playing in!

Alex loved making snow angels
More than snow angels, he loved making snowballs. This was taken right after he threw a snowball at Carter--I love the look on his face, like he just got away with something.Aaron wanted to go outside, but really didn't like it once he was out there--Alex throwing snowballs at him didn't help :)
no--of course I wouldn't take my baby out in the snow with bare feet--it is just bad lighting

Caroline with the snowman
The next day the snow was still there (though the snowman wasn't). The kids were kind of sad about it--but I told them what snowmen do at night (one of my favorite stories ever)--they drink cold chocolate that their moms make, they go sledding and make snow angles, play games, and have snowball fights--by the end of the night they are so tired and worn out from playing that they look slumped over and melted in the morning.
no--the boys are not trying to rebuild the snowman--they are using the big pieces to throw at each other.It was such a fun couple of days...but really, there is a reason I live in Georgia--February is supposed to be nice and warm and weather you want to go to the park in. We are ready for spring!
