First Snow Day of 2018

We had a snow day in mid January, which was a fun surprise.  The snow started Tuesday night/Wed morning and the girls were out of school Wednesday - Friday of that week.  We all got out there on Wednesday morning and played in it for awhile.  









Our neighbor, Nicole, took this picture for us!  




Abby kept eating the snow, and ended up with it all over her mouth.  


The picture below was our pile of clothes after we came in.  Playing in the snow is hard work on the parents to get everyone bundled and out the door, to keep their gloves and hats on while they are out there, and to dry everything once they come in, but it's totally worth it!! 


We made snow ice cream and they ended up drinking it with straws because it was a little more soupy than normal, but they all said it was soooo good (again, Whole 30....so no snow cream for me).  We're going to need one more snow in February so that I can make some more.  


I love snow days!  I love seeing the excitement on the kids faces, the beauty of it covering everything and a day were I'm "forced" to stay inside with my favorite people in the world.
