A White 26th

We woke up to quite the snowfall this morning! We were only predicted to get about 3.8" and ended up with about 10 so it was a big surprise at the end of the fall to see how much had actually come down. We were hoping Mike's store would close so he could stay home with us today but they did open and conveniently stayed open his entire 8 hour shift and then closed right at the end of it...figures, right? Logan and I spent the day cuddled up watching Handy Manny and then when her nap finished I took her outside for a while. We played and our neighbor came out and took her down the sled a few times since I couldn't quite hold my balance on it (wonder what's throwing it off? ;)) and then I had to bribe her by telling her Mike would take her back out to get her to come inside.

It's hard to tell because she wouldn't stop moving, but in some spots the snow way above her knees. She chose to trudge through it sideways a lot to keep her balance.


I LOVE this camera and the fun shots I can get with it since I can just keep clicking away.

One of our neighbor's had made a little snow fort and Logan decided it looked good enough to eat (literally).
"mmmmm ice."
Happy Birthday, Mommy! I won't look at the camera for you.

Then Mike got home and we all went out for a bit.
Sweet little snow bunny.
Daddy and Logan went down on the sled a ton. He even got her going down by herself several times....the girl is fearless.


(I was inside by the time she started going down on her own...I was bummed when I found out because I missed the picture opportunity)

So, Chili's is closed and so was Coldstone so my birthday dinner/cake has been delayed until everything opens up again. It's a little sad, but I guess it's one less night I have to cook this week, right? Mike was sweet and suggested we pick up a pizza so we could enjoy a hot meal without cooking and I took him up on it. :) Next year we'll celebrate birthday's as a family of four!
