School closed? snow? Bring it on!

Oh what fun we had on this past Tuesday. I definitely did not want more snow, but when I realized it was perfect conditions for snowmen and snow forts - I started bundling us all up!! I cannot remember the last time we had (I had) so much fun playing outside! We were outside in the morning for about an hour and a half. We made a snowgirl and a ton of snow angels. We would've stayed out longer, but tummies were grumbling- had to eat lunch.

Natalie figuring out what to do next

Here is Crystal the snowgirl. We submitted her to our local paper and they posted it! The kids were so excited to be in the newspaper! So now it was time for round two. After lunch and naps. Clothes were dried and out we went again. Grandpa W brought over a sled for the kids, so they pulled each other around the yard and we made a snow fort. I was having so much fun making this, one of our neighbors made a comment about being able to play in the snow all day. I truly felt like I was having more fun than the kids! I didn' t want to go in!

Natalie would not stop eating the snow! Everytime I looked at her, she had a chunk of snow in hand nibbling on it. All in all we spent over 3 1/2 hours outside and I am so glad as the next day it was just to cold to go out and play in it. So that snow day had to be spent indoors. What fun! The boys went sledding today, I will post those pics when I get them on here. Now we just need spring to arrive!
