*S*N*O*W*

My boys have been having so. much. fun in this snow!  Especially since their daddy came home early to play in it with us!  The first day we just had some trace amounts.

 There was enough to build a mini-snowman though...
 ...and more had accumulated by the evening to make snow angels. :)


 The next day brought more snow but Jakey still had school!  Crazy!  Here he is walking with his daddy to the bus stop.
 Meanwhile, Gavin and I played in the backyard.  He was determined to make his own snowman, so we each created our own masterpiece.
 I decided to make a potato head snowman... with a coffee mug, of course.  ;)
Adam just went for the biggest, most gigantic snowball possible.
 Then we came in for hot chocolate and cookies!


 Later that night, Casey was able join in on the fun too.  (He was napping during our earlier adventures. :)



 It was a blustery night, but we still managed to go sledding on the hill outside our house.  We even drove up to sled at the high school nearby and had the entire place to ourselves!

This morning was the perfect snow day.  Everything had frozen from the night before but the sun was out and it didn't even feel that cold outside.



Adam always loves to pull the boys on the sled behind his mini-motorcycle.  These boys are so lucky to have such a fun daddy to play with!


 Casey was even brave enough to join in on the fun this year.




We LOVE the snow!

 Well... most of the time.  ;)

I am super jealous! I think we may have to make a trip to Big Bear so Payton can see snow for the first time. Hope more snow days are on there way to your house.

Wow!
That is some snow...
My boys LOVE the snow too, and I am sure it will be shortly on the way here.
Love the Mr. Potato Head snowman! Very creative.
{And thanks for the reminder to get all our snow gear together-seeing your boys get their boots and hats on reminds me that I need to find it all very soon!}
Stay warm!

I have to say the Mr. Potato Head snowman is brilliant!
