Snow!

We have had enough of being cooped up inside.  Today we bundled (the wind had died down enough, too), and headed outside to take advantage of the snow before this weekend's forecasted temperatures melt it all away.

Did you ever wonder what a Princess-wannabe wears to play in the snow?

Now you know.

Ty was so happy for the outside company

East Coast friends...don't be jealous of all our snow!

Natalie has a snow eating compulsion.  She can't be stopped.  I have counseled her on 

selecting snow with no footprints, on choosing snow where there is no grass showing through, and still she eats any snow she can get her mittens on.

trampoline running is just as much fun in winter

but the falls are twice as hard

more ice collecting

the best part of snow play?  Hands down, great excuse to have hot chocolate!
