First Snow!

I managed to get all the kids out to play in the first snow of the season at our house, with only a reasonable amount of fussing and time to get outside. While we were out, the dogs came running up from who knows where (the gate had blown open.) Hubby had also stopped on his way to school that morning and put them back in when he saw them running around the neighborhood.

Honey didn't mind being bundled up too much, and she had a pair of snow boots that open up in front that makes them so nice to get on! Her complaint was cold hands. Here you can see her eating snow off one glove, and the other glove on the ground. And my little path I shoveled in the snow. Wishful thinking that shoveling snow would kickstart labor for me. ;)

I don't know what these two are up to...but they sure had fun in the snowdrifts. And making snow angels. And eating 'ice pops' i.e. icicles. And snow. And ice.

We played in the melting snow the following day, too. And Speedy got me right in the nose with a snow/iceball. He was pretty proud, but I told him not to throw them at my face anymore.
