Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

Ever since we received our first dusting of snow back in November, Elena has been begging for snow and begging to make snow Angels. So of course the very first sight of a snowflake had her all worked up! In fact we were heading out to the car going to school the first day it was snowing and I look around me to get Elena in the car, where is she? Laying on the driveway making an angel. At least there wasn't too much snow so she wasn't soaked. But it has been so cold here, I don't like that there is snow outside calling them to come out to play, but it is freezing especially with the wind chill, so all we can do is enjoy its beauty. We did have one day that was just cold enough that I let them run around for 15 minutes (boy did they need that!) So immediately they drop on the ground.
Angels in the making:)
Isn't that sweet?

The finished product! Now if we could just get some good packing snow we still need to get in some snowman making and sledding before the winter is up.
**Ground Hog didn't see his shadow, Spring will be early this year:) YAY!**
