***SNOW***

Okay, so last night I wrote this post totally thinking the snow we kept hearing about was gonna pass us by. I was a little bitter . =) CAUTION cheesy poem ahead:

Snow, snow, where did you go?
I have three boys who long for you soooo.

The weatherman said you were headed our way,
Instead we just got a cold, windy day.

We just want a few white, fluffy flakes,
This Mama has pictures she'd love to take.

I guess we'll have school and not a day home to play,
Bummer-we were hoping for just one snow day!


BUT...we did get a snow day!!!!! YAY!!
I checked the district website at about 1:00 am and sure enough school had been cancelled.
So this is the revised and much happier post. =)

When we woke up about 7:00am our place looked like this(don't laugh, to us Texans this is a lot):

Snow on our rooftop!!

Our snow sprinkled backyard.



So we headed out to enjoy it! CAUTION picture overload ahead!
Cooper walked onto the back porch and the first thing he did was drop down to make a snow angel.

Of course Carter wanted to play too!

Then Colton and I created some snow art...

Next, the boys headed to what they referred to as their "snow trampoline!"

Carter just wanted to eat it!

After that, we ventured to the driveway to make some more snow angels.

Then, we took a few photos together.

Me and my boys!

All my favorites!!!!

Last, we headed to the lake near our house. It is a short walk but it was a super cold one! The boys love throwing rocks in the water when it is warm so we had to see if it was frozen. Yep--it was!

We spent the rest of the morning drinking hot cocoa, watching movies and relaxing by the fire. The sun came out around 10:30 am and by noon our snow was gone. It was fun while it lasted though!!
