Winter Wonderland

This morning we woke up to about 10 inches of snow. It was the perfect opportunity to take the kids out to play in it for the first time *EVER*
Our yard seems to never get any accumulation because of the winds that blow from the big open field behind us, but today that wasn't the case.
It took a little time to get prepped to go out, but once outside we played for about an hour and a half.
The kids, threw, kicked and crawled through the snow. Sadly, it was NOT packing snow so no snowman could be made. It also made our snowball fight rather pathetic, but we all had fun.

My bundled up snow monsters ... Taylor's eyes are super blue in all this white snow. LOVE IT!
He was smiling from ear to ear and looking rather fluffy in all his snow gear
Taylor's snowball
Tyson's Snowball....it should be snowfall!
He had a tough time walking in snow up to his knees...Guess its hard being a little guy, but he trudged on.
See those Baby Blues peeking out from under that hat
When I realized Tyson did not own a scarf I had to improvise and cut the leg off a pair of old flannel pants. I'd say it did the job quite nicely.
I should have snapped a pic after they came in with their rosy cheeks and noses. I think they really enjoyed playing in the snow. Here's to hoping if we get more snow that it allows us to build a snowman and get more pics than I did today.
