Snow Day

Within a week of returning from Florida, we were hit with really the only snowstorm we've had all winter.  A blizzard, which up to 20" of snowfall was predicted, only produced about 6" of snow, but it was heavy, it was really wet, and it was perfect for building a snowman!

Please ignore Ellie's goofball face - she had suckered me into giving her a Starburst on their way out the door...

Wintertime in Minnesota!

Victoria was not a huge fan of the snow-Bumbo chair Nick and Ellie built for her.

Victoria was only fond of the snow if she was being held.

Victoria was more fond of watching people in the snow than being out in it herself!

Since we were lucky to receive this blizzard on a Tuesday night, that meant that we had all day Wednesday to enjoy in the snow.  Nick and I are both off on Wednesdays, so it wasn't exactly a snow day, but we did take a break from our usual Wednesday activities to enjoy some time outside with our girls and then we all napped away the afternoon.  It was really a perfect day!
