a very snowy day

Due to the fact that we've had so little snow this year, it is relatively easy to remember the times we did have snow. Last Monday was one of them. It started snowing Sunday night and when we woke up Monday a couple inches of snow blanketed the ground.

Anthony had the day off work (President's Day) so we all bundled up and got to work shoveling the driveway.

Lauren was way more interested in playing than shoveling which was fine. Too bad she doesn't have enough snow experience to make a snow angel in un-shoveled snow.

 Second times the charm.

Later we ventured over to the park and went sledding. I don't know if I've ever seen Will smile so wide.

Pure joy.

Lauren went down the hill too. After one ride down the hill with dad she was ready to go on her own.

She was pretty pleased with herself until she wiped out and her face was white washed. Then she was cold and grumpy. The beginning of the end of our outing.

Will went down as much as we would let him, and then went back with TJ after dinner. Lauren was still feeling a bit frosty towards the snow so the two of stayed behind and watched Cinderella.

A fun way to spend a cold, quiet day.

Oh, and proof that I went sledding too:

Apparently Will and I have the same size heads because I couldn't find my hat when we were getting ready and one of his hats fit me quite comfortably.
