Snow Days!

Since yesterday afternoon, it has snowed at least 5 inches. Mary Ellen loves it! At church on Sunday, she was told that it was going to be snowing when she got up from her nap. She went down for a nap better than she has in weeks. We could hear her moving in her room, but she wasn't doing her typical wake-up routine. All of the sudden, we heard her say, "YES!" We realized that she was looking out her window and found that it had started snowing. She immediately wanted to go out and play in it. We bundled up and went out to see it. She loved seeing her footprints and tried to make a snow angel. It was hard for her to lay there to make the snow angel, because it was still snowing in her face! It was extremely cold but, she didn't seem to mind. She kept telling me, "I love the snow!"



Today, Mary Ellen ventured out in the snow with her daddy, while Charlotte and I enjoyed the warmth of the house!






I had never made snow cream before considering we usually don't get that much snow in Arkansas, so Paul was ready to make it for Mary Ellen. She was very excited to see it all come together and then eating it!

Snow for the snow cream


Mixing it all together. Charlotte was awake, so she took part in watching.


Enjoying the first bite!
