snow day!

Finally.....a day to just stay home! It has been sooo cold this week and I was getting a little tired of shuttling everyone around in the 20 degree weather!

Allie and I were sitting on the couch this morning and Sydney came in and said, ohhhhhh, it's snowing!!! Carter came in a little while later and the snow was the first thing he noticed too! It was snowing sooo hard!

When Allie went down for her nap we bundled up and headed outside! They had fun just running around in the snow!

They were on full speed!

Sydney grabbed some snow and tried to make a snowball...Carter was the target!

But it was very powdery and wouldn't stick...poof!Photobucket

More running around like crazy people!

Proof I was there, ha!

After we were sufficiently frozen, we came in for some hot chocolate with marshmallows.

Allie woke up too...

The snow slowed down by this point and it was starting to sleet...I bundled Allie up and took her outside for a few minutes...

she wasn't too impressed ;)

well, maybe a little!

During Allie's other nap, we made a cute little reindeer.

Carter practiced writing his name too...

Glitter is so messy but we kept it pretty well under control, thank goodness!

When Allie woke up I traced her hands and foot and made one for her too...it was so little and cute!

We did a little sleigh riding in the afternoon too...there was a nice sheet of ice on top of the snow! That was fun!

When Kevin got home he made a fire...ahhhh. I love snow days...hoping for some more soon!
