What a beautiful day out in the country! For those of you that haven't been keeping up, we left the city life we led in Florida, and now live out in the country....in a whole other state! A state we call, The Promised Land. (You can read the details HERE if you want.)
So, here we are!
Last night we had our first real snowfall of the season, the Big Winter Storm of 2014. This morning, the kiddos couldn't get up fast enough to throw on their snow boots, thermals, coats, gloves, ear muffs...(well, you get the picture), and get outside to play in the powdery, white stuff. Boy, was it beautiful, not to mention fun!

Our snowy wonderland!

Anyone want to ice skate in the pool?
|
Or maybe ice skate on the road? Notice the tire marks. That was a car rolling backwards. |
|
My sweet babies having fun! |
|
|
Oh, yeah! Let the snowball fights begin! |
|
Smart boy! Plenty of snow and a place to duck for cover!
|
Okay, I know I'm biased. But aren't they cute?
I am one blessed Mama! :)
|
|
|
I love this crazy kid!! |
|
Even sweet hubby got in on the fun! |

|
This girl blesses my heart!

Yes, they did argue about who would wipe the slide with their bottoms. Kai won. |
|
We tried convincing Fred he was a snow bunny. Didn't work. He found no fun in what everyone was laughing about, and quickly headed back inside to lay by the warm fire.
(Yes, I know. He is dire need of grooming. It's on the list of things to do!)
|
So, after all was said and done, the general consensus was:
|
Hurray for snow days!!! |
As always, thank you, Jesus, for providing an awesome day of family fun!
Ooooh....and lest not forget. I have one more thing I am very thankful for....
|
...my toasty warm, Bear Paw® boots! They rock! |
Stay warm, safe and be blessed, friends.
