Snow of the year!

Once a year (or maybe twice) we get snow here. The snow fell at a perfect time-Friday night- and I was awakened to the sound of Nicole's beyond excited voice "Mommy there's snow!" over and over until I had seen the snow...all five inches of lovely white peace.The kids LOVED the snow and sledding on a boogie board in the backyard.

Michael especially loves the snow. He will be absolutely a freezing little icicle but still scream and kick like he is dying if we try to bring him in. On Saturday, he explored and played each time they went out until Jim got cold!
Nicole and Michael did not have snow pants so we had them layer and layer with anything they had!
Michael looks so cute all bundled up and stiff like a snowman...yet SO thrilled to run around as fast as he can! Nicole loves throwing snow at daddy.
Off for more fun!

Church was cancelled today due to the icy roads, so we got to have church at home with a lesson, songs, prayers, coloring, scriptures, and fun as a family.

I think that first photo of Michael should be entitled "Bliss". I mean, seriously, is it even possible to be happier than that? Thanks for sharing the photos. I'm glad y'all enjoyed the snow day(s)!
