Snow Day...

I am clearly playing catch up with these posts since it is currently a sunny 61 degrees, but a mere 5 days ago this was outside our backdoor:

You can clearly never predict the Texas weather and while our little blanket of snow was not even a full inch it was enough to make a 3 year old little boy extremely happy! We were all pleasantly surprised with the gift of a 3 day weekend (even UPS shut down... please insert "you live in the south joke here") and tried to make the most of our time together! Radley couldn't get out of bed fast enough!

He was especially excited about the footprints he got to make on the patio, deck, yard, street, etc... 

 Emmy was pretty indifferent about all the white stuff... maybe because we held her and only let her sit in it for about 2 minutes (I am sometimes a neurotic momma).Both of the kids looked adorable all bundled up and ready to play! I'm surprised Radley sat still long enough to let us take a picture.

He just had to go down the slide and get all snowy...

And then we decided to bundle them up even more and take them on a "train ride" in their wagon!

I don't know who was more excited... the kids are Ryan (note the sarcasm). He pulled them up and down for about 10-15 minutes before coming back inside. I, personally, stayed outside long enough to "capture the moment" and then headed indoors to make some pancakes!

I think our neighbors thought we were crazy, but Radley and Emmy just laughed and giggled the whole time! 

Radley continued to "check" on the snow all day just to make sure it was still outside. I finally just let him stay out there and play and would check to see what he was doing from time to time. He burried toys, played in dirt, made footprints, and did what all little boys will do...

 

 

 

 

 

But who could resist a taste of that white stuff!
