Snow Day!!!

Monday is the best day for a snow day!  Today, after 6-ish inches of snow fell last night, Matt and the kids got to play hookie with the babies and me.  It was big fun...and it looks like we get to do it all over again tomorrow...hopefully we won't go completely stir crazy!

This morning we got up and outside as soon as we could-all bundled up of course:

Kiddos (and my shadow..oops!) ready to go out. 




Haha!  I thought this was a funny baby angle.  Ben is not really feeling the girly snow boots...



Look at all the snow!!

Ben agreed to come out only if he was well covered.  Especially the girly snow boots.

Chilly puppy!


Matt and Pea (unsuccessfully) attempting a snowman.  The snow proved to be unpackable-


Matt didn't want to give up on it!
Chassie loves the snow!  Nothing better than fetch with snowballs!

That's a happy puppy!!  Also excellent Chassie blackmail. 


Ben was happy watching from the wagon.

We pulled out the pool turtle (which doubles as a sled) for a few rounds down the driveway


Matt had to work really hard to get them down the snowy driveway.


Really, really hard.

Even Ben went for a quick ride.  Before melting completely and needing a bottle in his warm "mancave". 



The snow has turned into ice which makes it a bit dangerous to go out in, so I'm not sure how much we'll be outside tomorrow.  Hopefully between Netflix, Candyland and the Kindle we'll stay entertained!

  1. Looks like fun! All we got was the ice, but we managed some dangerous sledding on that.
