We about gave up on snow, until...

We woke up to a little snow today and without hesitation got up, got dress and ran out to play.
I thought Spencer would probably like to wear his little snowman outfit again... so we bundled him up and gently plopped little Spenc into the snow for a few pictures.

Madeline waited patiently for Spencer to go down for a nap before she and I could go out and play. This snow is a big deal because its the first snow since October. Madeline couldn't wait to make a snowman and snow angel. After a few minutes of snowman making she started suggesting a snowball fight. When I didn't respond fast enough (still busy fulfilling her first request of a snowman) she started pelting me with snowballs.
We had a great time and even had time to have a little hot chocolate together before Spencer woke up.
Next year Spenc will be big enough for snow adventures of his very own. Until then he has to put up with being dressed up by mama.

Our two snowmen - one being much cutter then the other.

Madeline and I making snow angels

Legit snowman. Seriously a little sad that our kids will never know such a simple childhood pleasure of snowmen & snow angels. Way to get out there and play!

You are such a good mom. And that snowman (the actual SNOW snowman) is so cute! Obviously little Spencey snowman is SO adorable. I love both!
Mad looks so happy. What a fun snow day!

Ha! Yes, the little Maddie snowbaby is much cuter than the other. That is a LOT of snow!! Have fun--we're unseasonably warm down here (but enjoying it).
