Look! There's sand everywhere!

We were surprised to wake up last Saturday to snow! Not because they didn't warn us or even say on the 10 o'clock news Friday night that it was snowing that very second in "town we live in." But, surprised because it never snows when they say it will and we already had our warm spot in the bed so we didn't care to check their accuracy.
But, Saturday morning, we were happy to see all of the white goodness on the ground. We got the kids up and skipped breakfast to bundle them up and head outside.
Sister kept looking out various windows in the house saying, "Hey! There's sand over here too!" "Hey! There's some on my trampolined!" "Hey! There's sand everywhere! It made a big mess!"
Once we got them all dressed, they took off and were all the way in the front yard before we could catch up!


Buddy wasn't sure about it at first because he doesn't like his hands getting dirty. But, once WB showed him that it could be made into a ball, he was sold! And then, he figured out he could eat it and it was even better!


Buddy says "Don't mind me, I'm just over here eatin' my breakfast, mowin' some sand."

This is what your face looks like when you eat snow (and a little grass) continually for about 30 minutes.

I'm glad your kiddos enjoyed playing in the sand! I love those little red chubby cheeks from all that snow-eating =)
