We awoke to another snow day today. I know a snow day is no big deal to many but to us here in the deep south, it’s a real big deal. This is our second actual you-can-play-in-it snow day this year and we had one last year. I have not seen that ever in all of my 30ish years of living here.
The kids wanted to go out as soon as possible but I intended to eat a little breakfast first. However, it is a bit hard to eat with 10 little eyes staring at you in anticipation of going to play in the snow. So I just grabbed a cup of coffee and headed out the door. Breakfast can wait…this is a snow day!
Of course, I had to get everyone to let me take a snow day portrait.
The snow sure does make a good portrait taking backdrop!
I know that I’m biased but I think those are some good-looking kids!
Whenever I got too cold, I had to run in for some more coffee. That warmed me right up!
Bryce and I worked on a snowman. I do believe that I may be getting a little too old to make snowmen anymore. I am so tired and sore tonight. But I keep reminding myself that I probably burned off some calories today!
By the time we finally got to the mouth and eyes, we were too cold and tired to add more buttons. We decided that three was a good number for cold hands.
I had to take some snow shots too. It may be another 5 or so years before we see snow again. We need some proof that it does snow in the deep south!
And just in case any one ever doubts that it does actually snow here, we kept a bottle of snow for our freezer. Everyone does that, right!? {wink}
Our family enjoyed our snow day very much. Well, everyone but Max. He wasn’t too happy with us today! He sat under the truck out of the snow until someone opened the door so he could run back into the house. Silly cat!
I hope you have a blessed weekend!
