Dec 09 Snowstorm

Well, we got a foot or so this weekend and took the kids outside to play. After warning Kurt, "They may not like it, be prepared to have to come right back in the house" - I was proven wrong!! Yes, there were tantrums while getting them into their winter gear - but the second their tiny little feet hit the snow, they were in heaven!!




They became obsessed with helping us shovel! A much more productive activity than say...LOCKING MOMMY OUT OF THE HOUSE (ask if you want to hear THAT story)...

And yes, we did encounter many more tantrums once Aidan realized it was hard to pick up snow, bucket, shovel, etc while wearing mittens. But was it all worth it to see how much they love the snow??? YES!

Just this morning Maddie looked out the window and asked "Play in snow? So pretty!". Uh oh, I think we've created snow bunnies!
