Snow day!

We have gotten a lot of snow this week - I think we ended up with around 12 inches! We decided to bundle the kids up and went outside to play in the snow! It took a while to bundle, and the kids grew tired of the cold really quickly, but it was alot of fun while it lasted! Elizabeth is wearing 3 pairs of socks, 3 pairs of pants, a long sleeved Onsie, a thick sweater, a double layer coat, a hat, scarf and thick gloves! She was bundled!!

After playing outside we came in for some hot chocolate and marshmallows!! Yummy!
Elizabeth is still to little for marshmallows, but she sure liked the hot chocolate!!

We could not pass up the opportunity to make some delicious snow cream! The kids all loved to help! I had them try the snow before we added any ingredients so they could taste the difference. It was a lot of fun :)


Time to mix!
They were very good at mixing!
The finished product!
I think they like it!


Micah was a very careful taster!
Elizabeth on the other hand was not so careful! She tried using two spoons at the same time!
Not all of it made it to her mouth!
