snow day!

brody ran into our room at 6:50 on Friday morning and soooo excitedly exlaimed (equivalent to Christmas excitement!) . . . "Momma I looked out my window, and there's snow out there! There's snow on the ground!" As soon as Emersyn cracked her door open Brody led her to the window so they could look outside in awe and amazement!



What else to eat on a cold Friday morning . . . cinnamon rolls! This must be one of the first times I've made them because Brody loved them almost as much as the snow . . . but not quite ;)





all bundled up to go outside! thanks to uncle mike and linda for the mittens and hats! we've made good use of them lately!



emersyn's first steps in the snow. it's crunchy, soft, wet, and all of the kids tasted it too. they tell me it tastes goooood!!



we were outside by 8, and i thought we'd be the only crazies out so early. looks like there was excitement everywhere because Nick was outside too, and we heard voices around the neighborhood. we didn't know how much time we had with this great snow experience so we were going to have fun while we could! brody quickly figured out how to make a snow ball and had a blast!





thick powder on our driveway made great footprints . . . this picture reminds me of the cover of the book "A Snowy Day" . . . or at least I think that's the name of the book. I just searched it, and I can't find it so perhaps my memory has failed me! Hope everyone has a great weekend! GO STEELERS!
