Snowy Day!

Bridget and her snow mittens.

I wish Joe could have been in this picture but he would not stay still long enough for me to get a shot of him!

For the record, I do NOT like the snow or the cold.  I would very happily move to an area that is warm all year round.  That said, my kids LOVE both!  So, we took a trip into our yard to play in the snow.  I'm always surprised at how much fun the kids can have and how creative they can get with something like snow.  I threw a few sand toys their way and they had a blast.  Then they spent a good 30 minutes playing snow tag with each other.  All in all it was a lot of fun and Joe took a great nap after being out in the cold air.  My only complaint is that it takes way too long to get bundled up in all of our winter garb.
