What a treat it was to wake up to freshly fallen snow. It was less of a treat when we were battling traffic home from the city for three hours the night before. Thankfully, the many hours in the car were quickly forgotten when Savannah pulled up her blind and saw snow the next morning. Luckily, Daddy was home. I certainly couldn't bundle all three kids and myself for a quick jaunt out in the snow. (I am still in shock over how hard it is to get everyone out the door now that the weather has changed - three is harder than one!!!)
After putting on many layers we all made it outside. It is important to note that Adeline and Lila will have know idea what snow is now that we are moving to Texas so this fun in the snow was must do before moving. Once outside, Adeline sat patiently on a blanket and watched Savannah try to pull Lila Grace on the sled. Lila Grace kept trying to climb off and eat the snow while walking around in boots that were two sizes too big. Was I really supposed to buy boots for these girls? As you probably can tell by the pictures, no one was really thrilled when forced to sit still for pictures. But hey, what is life without a few (or a lot) of pictures.
Our fun in the snow did turn out to be FUN. However, it was a lot of work for a very short period of fun. I think I will let the other snow storms come and go before I bundle all three kids again. I will be too busy shoveling the driveway and walk anyway. Yet another reason why it is better to have Daddy home rather than in Texas. Let's pray for a a warm winter.
