Snow Day 2014

This is not the first snow day of the year, that happened two weeks ago.  Two weeks ago, I didn't think to have the kids go outside and play.  Like I told Nick earlier, I have to fight my Puerto Rican/Floridian instinct that says "oooh, snow outside....it's cold, don't go out there."
After seeing the videos of everyone else's kids on FB I realized that I had deprived my kids of snow fun.  So, this time we took them out and it was a lot more pleasant than the snow day last year.  They stayed out there for a long while.  Gavin stayed longer than Liam.  Liam came inside a couple of times to warm up.

Today, it's still snowing and it looks beautiful but it feels like 17 degrees outside so it's still too cold to have them go outside to play.  
Here's a clip for family to watch.  Beware, it's 5 minutes long.

That brought a huge smile to me. We're going to have to get them a saucer sled:). At least you don't have ice under the snow. More fun in deeper snow maybe after nap. Tell Gavin that to take his snow ball and start rolling it around the yard, it will get HUGE! Gavin, save me a snowball in the freezer:). Love you, Mary-mom
