Not only was today a Leap Day, it was a BIG snow day for us. It's weird to write, but we have only had a few inches of snow all winter. In fact, not even enough to have the kiddos play in it. Although, starting last night we had hours of sleet and rain that turned over into lots of snow. We don't know our totals but Nate would say at least six inches of heavy white stuff is in our yard. Thankfully it is suppose to be back into the 30-40's, so I do not see it staying.
All day, Elyse was going crazy with excitement wanting to go play in it. Sadly, since my snow pants currently do not fit, the kiddos had to wait till Dad got home. Needless to say, Dad did not disappoint! They shoveled, had a snowball fight, made snow angels and a great snowman.
Today was a perfect day to play outside; so us three took advantage of it. We bundled up and headed out to where it was 35 and sunny. Even though Elyse wasn't a big fan of the snow since I think it's because she can't walk well in her boots or feel the ground she still had fun and was a good sport. I really hope for more of these nice days!!!
Although instead of complaining about it, I decided to bundle Elyse and myself up and head outdoors. I'm so glad I did, she LOVED it. Her boots were a little big, so she feel a lot, but once she feel she got to eat the snow off her gloves and tended to enjoy that. I know we will be going out to play in the snow more this winter but for now, fall please come back!
