Snowy Day Fun

One Wednesday in February we finally got a tiny bit of snow! It started snowing around 9am and Charlotte and I sat and watched it fall for most of the morning. Around noon, the roads were starting to get covered and school around us were dismissing, so I headed out and picked up the kids early and brought them home for what would, sadly, be our only snow day this year. 
When we finally got home (the traffic was madness -- but the roads ended up getting better throughout the afternoon) we just headed straight out to play. In hindsight, I'm so thankful that we did, because by the time Matt got home, it was mostly gone. Crazy AR weather!

It was a good, wet snow, perfect for packing! By the time we headed in, we'd rolled and packed most of the snow in our yard!



Our sad little attempt at a snowman. But, we had the best time building it-- that what counts in my book!
Charlotte wanted to swing. And, she thought that swinging in the snow was hilarious! She squealed over and over the whole time!










We came in for some hot cocoa to warm us up after over an hour outside! It was such a fun afternoon and I'm thankful for this one little snow that we did have.
