Snow Days

We had our first snow of the winter and it lasted days! Baylor was for sure the most excited about it all. It all started Saturday but didn't stick much. By the time Baylor and McCall got all bundled up in their snow clothes, they lasted about 5 minutes because the snow changed to rain. Bummer! They looked super cute though!
The forecast was snow off and on for the rest of the week so the bin of snow clothes stayed in the house and we were ready for whatever mother nature threw our way. Sunday we got quite a bit of snow so these two had fun out in it for a bit before church. 
Then Monday was our first offical snow day with no school. It looked like by afternoon that a lot of it would melt away so we started our day right after breakfast to enjoy all the fun the snow had to offer. We first went to Lake Meridian Park to go sledding. The girls all loved it. Paige didn't last as long and Pops was kind enough to walk over and get her. She was still recovering from sickness and her body didn't quite have as much stamina as usual. I wasn't sure how McCall would do but she loved everything about it. She only went down with other people but I got the cutest video of her sledding down with me as she had her hands up in the air. Baylor was happy to go down as many times as she could and would take turns going by herself and then with McCall.
We made a quick stop at Nona and Pops and had some snow ball fun.
Then Baylor and I made a snowman and Baylor loved putting it all together. I made a snowball and got watercolor paints which McCall loved for a bit and Baylor decided to give her snow women some makeup. 
Then we all enjoyed some snow cones made with real snow!
It was such a fun snow day! The next day the girls also didn't have school and they spent a few hours out with the neighbors in the snow. Nate and I have enjoyed some walks down our street while the big fluffy snowflakes were falling which was wonderful. The girls didn't have school on Wednesday and had a late start today. Our school district is quick to cancel school which I'm not a fan of mostly because it eats into my summer break, but we have enjoyed our days off and some fun in the snow.
