Snow Day!!

Well, today is Martin Luther King Day and the kids are out of school. As we woke up this morning Elijah and Caden came running into my room exclaiming "its snowing out, its snowing out...can we go out and play in it"?? So I got myself out of bed, proceeded to get them their breakfast and make them clean up a few toys first as the house was a disaster!! Then bundled them up and got them their sled as they just HAD to sled down our hill in the back yard. They were out there for nearly an hour playing and having fun. I know...don't everyone laugh at once when you see this. It amazed me that they could think that playing in this amount of snow would be so fun. I am anxious for them to someday get to play in "real" snow and do some "real" sledding!!! Enjoy the pictures:)Notice....Elijah has a pair of boots and he said he had to wear them....I just about laughed at that thought....does he think he needs boots for this amount of snow??? Of course I let him wear them...gotta get some use out of them before they get passed down the line of boys.
Currenlty it is still snowing, however it is no longer sticking as the ground is just to wet. I think its suppose to snow pretty much all day, but with no accumulation Elijah will be back to school tomorrow.
