BIG SNOW

Friday was the first legit (in my opinion) snow day we've had this year!!! We got around 4 inches!! It snowed on and off all day long!! It was quite pretty outside. Both kids got to spend some time out in the snow and that was tons of fun, plus it's great to get out of the house on days like that, even if it is just the front yard. The snow was nice and fluffy, that means no snowman this time. I did make a tiny one, that really didn't look like much, it was more for Bobby anyhow! It was good enough to make some snowballs though. Bobby enjoyed throwing them at the side of the little barn next door! He also threw one at me, I told him I wasn't wearing snow pants so not to throw anymore at me. We went out later in the day with Amaryllis and Bobby asked if I was wearing my snow pants then, hoping to hit mom with a snowball, but I don't have snow pants! He did put a nice big pile of snow on his sisters head! What a great BIG brother he is!! This was Amaryllis' first "real" time in the snow. She had gone out last winter when she was tiny, but this time she got to "enjoy" it a little more. She discovered that she can eat the snow, which was so FUNNY!! She didn't move around much, I think that she was a little stiff in her snowsuit and boots!! We had fun though and I tool lots of pictures. Bob was out of town, so unfortunately he didn't get to have any fun with us in it this time around. Maybe next time we get a good snow, I can take Bobby somewhere to go sledding. Apparently there is a hill close by that is great for it. Bobby went last year (?) with friends, but I've never been. We'll have to see!! The joys of winter! And the only way I really do like snow... playing in it with my kids!
