SNOW!

On Saturday morning we woke up to a few inches of snow on the ground.  The kids were so excited!  So after breakfast we bundled the boys up and they headed outside.  They were out there for about an hour.  Leila wanted to get in on the fun too, but since we don't have any snow clothes for her yet, she only lasted a few minutes.  Just long enough for me to get a few pictures.

She mostly just wanted Daddy to hold her, but she insisted on being outside.

Of course, the first thing Nixon did was eat the snow!

Then it was time for a snowball fight.  Jace and Nix against Daddy. 

Leila wasn't too happy about watching the boys have all the fun.

Then the boys went to the front yard for a while.  They came and knocked on the door, and showed me their snowman that they had built!  There really wasn't a ton of snow, so Brock had gathered every inch of it to make the snowman!

Adding the finishing touches.  Some acorns for eyes, M&M's for the mouth, and straw for hair.

Notice how bare the yard is.

Then they remembered Brock's top hat that he wore for Halloween, and had to add that!

I am not a fan of the snow at all.  If it was up to me, it would snow Christmas Eve into Christmas Day, and then never again. But I am glad that my kids enjoy it, and that they have a nice daddy who will play in it with them!
