Snow day









Getting Daddy with a snowball.




Riley had a snow day today, so we headed outside for a bit to let the kids play. We don't have snow clothes so they just had a bunch of layers, making it hard to move. Gracin couldn't even get up when he fell down:) The snow was perfect for making snowmen and snowballs, it stuck together better than I have ever seen! That was nice for Gracin because he could just grab a handful and already have a snowball ready to launch. He really liked throwing the snow and eating it... those are his two favorite things to do with anything. Rhylan had fun making footprints and throwing snowballs at daddy.

Riley helped them make a huge snow man... she had a big brain which eventually let to her "downfall." We used Mr. Potato head pieces to make the face.

They were pretty wet, but I don't think they noticed.Rhylan and Gracin didn't care, they just wanted to keep playing. Gracin was so upset when we came inside. "Cars," popcorn, and hot chocolate did the trick to get everybody warm and happy again. I like snow... once a year!!

Wow! That is a crazy amount of snow! I saw on the news this morning that Atlanta was getting snow today, and I wondered if that meant you would too. Love the pics of the kids on top of the snowman. That picture from the CT scan is crazy, in a cool way. Not too many people can say that they have seen their child's brain and spinal cord.
