Snow Day: Third Time's a Charm

Imagine waking up to this in your backyard.

Literally INCHES of snow!

Well, Julia and Aidan, you don't have to imagine it...you lived it! Do you remember this March day?

You were pretty impressed with the view!

And school, work, and all outside travel was officially cancelled!

Which meant... SNOW DAY #3 for 2015!

After a nice breakfast and a little bit of warming up, we ventured out into the great snowy beyond.

We laundry-basket sledded down our ditch...

We played, threw snow balls, built a snow man (sort of)...

And then DESTROYED it!!!!

We ate an icy snack...

At this point, Julia, you had had enough snowy fun and went inside with Mommy to get warm and have a yummy more solid snack. And it was just you and me, Aidan.

And we went on an adventure...

We arrived at a vacant lot with a pretty solid hill and tried to sled even more.

You made up a cool game where you threw giant snow balls into ice puddles to try to break them up. This has always been one of your favorite snow activities.

After 3 pairs of your gloves got wet, you asked for mine.

After your shoes got soaking wet, you asked for mine. 

This wasn't the best option for many logistic reasons, so you mounted up and we headed home.

The last stretch you ran by yourself.

What a pristine, snowy, perfect snow day.
