Fun in the Snow

We got our first real snow fall a little while ago and there was no holding Makayla back! The minute it snowed she wanted to be out there playing in it. Caleb being the good day he is took her out there and played with her until she was satisfied! Here are some pictures of the fun she had in the snow.

Getting ready to go. You defiantly have to bundle up to outside here. It is freezing! Last year we didn't have snow pants for her, but this year we bought some and she loves them! Also she got new boots. They are too big for her, but she loves them and wears them everywhere!

She loves to throw the snow in the air, but doesn't like when it hits her in the face. It is kind of funny when it does.

She was trying to run away for me and she fell. Normally she would scream, but with all that snow stuff she didn't mind!

I had to put a picture of Lucy in this post. This is what she did while Makayla played outside, slept!

Makayla can not play outside without wanting to build a snowman. This year Caleb was very proud of her because she really wanted to and did help build it. It was so cute to see her get snow and bring it to her daddy.

The finished product. Isn't it so cute.

The two behind the hard work. A few days later we came home and some of the punk kids in our neighborhood had come and knocked it down. I was like oh great she is going to cry when she sees it, but her reaction was even better. She was dumbfounded! all she did was point and say, "Who did this?" in her very stern voice. Then she was like we need to build another one. She still talks about those "punk" kids as I called them in front of her. She is so smart, she picks up on EVERYTHING I say.

Playing in the snow is not complete without a sledding adventure. This was Makayla's first time sledding and she loved it.

She even went down a little hill we have across the street from us. At first she went with daddy, then she went on her own while daddy held the rope, and now she goes all by herself with someone even giving her a little push. She is growing up too fast.

She finished up outside with making a snow angel! What a great time she had. I don't know how many more times she will get to play outside here, because you have to play in the snow right when it snows or else it turns to ice, because it is so cold, and then it is no fun! I guess we will have to wait and see!
