Finally, it snowed! Charlotte got about two inches of the white stuff, starting last night, so the children woke up to a winter wonderland.

Madly digging through the clothing, flinging things this way and that |
After breakfast, the children dug through our bag of snow clothing to see what fit whom.
Properly outfitted, the outdoor fun began!
Margaret (2-3/4) is suddenly looking so much like a big girl. Where did my baby girl go?! |
Despite how much I love going out into the wet snow when it's about 15 degrees, somebody had to volunteer to stay inside to prepare hot cocoa with homemade whipped cream. So, I let Chris take the children outdoors. I'm magnanimous that way.
Real whipped cream is so good. |
We also made maple snow candy!
We had some snow days recently too...Always so much fun. Alice even got into it.
ReplyDeleteI need to try that maple snow candy sometime!
