And then there was snow…
There’s something magical about the first snowfall. As much as I dread the white crap, and no matter how old I get, the first snowfall still makes me giddy like a little kid. Ashleigh and I were enjoying our breakfast after Wes left for work this morning and I looked up to see snow falling from the sky! I scooped up Ashleigh and we went over to the front door. I opend the door and showed her what was outside. She was so excited. I asked her if she knew what it was, I wasn’t sure if she would have remembered from last year, and she sure did! “Snow”, she whispered, then she giggled. We closed the door because it was quite cold and she sat on the radiatior in the front window watching the snowflakes fall to the ground. I took the chance to snap a few photos, but it was only a matter of time before I was forced into taking her OUTSIDE! bbrrrrr…. We did get dressed, got on her boots, jacket, mittens, and hat, and then I realized I forgot to make her go to the bathroom first. I was just waiting for the, “I have to go potty!” But, luckily it never came! She and Laci had a blast playing in the snow, trying to make snow balls (there wasn’t that much snow), and of course, eating it! We came back in cold and wet and had some soup to warm up! We still enjoyed looking at it out the window, If it actually sticks and we get a real accumulation maybe it will be fun tomorrow. I think we had all the fun we could today 
Ashleigh was disappointed when she had eaten all the snow off the surfaces which were deemed “ok.” I think she’s looking forward to having more snow to eat tomorrow!
As she is retelling the story to Wes, she says, “It’s cold out there. There is snow. Me and Mom went out there to eat snow. It was yummy. Yum, yum, yum.” What a kid….
For now….enjoy the photos!
