Snow?! I Thought it Was Spring!

We woke up to a winter wonderland this morning! Weird considering the warm temps we've been seeing over the past several weeks. Max was the first to spot it since he was up making sure Daddy got out to do the calf chores right away at 6. Jaxon slept in till 6:15, that's late for him!


We spent our morning digging out the playroom so I treated the boys to an afternoon of sledding in the 1/2 inch of snow we got! (Who knows, this may be the only snow we see this winter!) 
This was Max's 1st sled ride. Jaxon was not too happy about having to ride in the back! 
This became a fun game... that and bailing out while flying down the slopes! 
Max was making a snow angel! 
Here's Jaxon making his snow angel!
Of course they both had to taste it!
Yummy! 
Not sure if he's trying to be an abominable snow man or what?!  
The snowplow made a pass through the driveway so we can get to school in the morning!!!
If this is the only snow we see this winter... I wouldn't be too disappointed! 
SHHHH... don't tell the kids!!!

"Snow" Much Fun

What kid doesn't love snow?! Last week at PreSchool, the kiddos were discussing this wintry delight! Since we didn't have any snow on the ground at the start of the week, Mrs. Amy came up w/ a fun way for them to have an indoor snowball fight! Jaxon must have really been getting into it... he's on his hands and knees at the bottom of the picture!
By the end of the week, they had the real thing to go out and play in! Jaxon tells me this was their snow fort... "You need a good snow fort if you're gonna have a snowball fight, Mom!" When I got to school that day to pick Jaxon up this is what I saw! I sat and watched awhile wondering where everyone else was, he was all alone. The other kids and their teacher were walking back up to where he was sitting... guess he needed a snack! I'm so glad Mrs. Amy captured this... such a silly boy! Yesterday was another SnowDay! We got about 6" and Jaxon couldn't wait to get out in it! Daddy came home a little early to do some scooping so Mommy got to take Jaxon sledding! We had "snow" much fun!!! Daddy did his fair share of pulling the sled too when Mommy had to go back inside to take care of Maddox.
Hopefully we will get to go out again today!
