Fun in the Snow




So on Monday we got a little bit of snow out here. It snowed all morning, and we got about an inch. We tried on Nate's snow gear from last year, and sure enough, it still fits. The boots may be a little tight, but they'll do for the amount that he'll use them. He went out while it was still snowing, but didn't like the flakes landing on his nose, so we decided to wait until it stopped snowing to go and play. Both of the boys really enjoyed the snow, which goes to show, that maybe an inch is just the right amount for a toddler and preschooler. I guess Nate would have had fun with more, but Graham probably would not care.

Graham did better than I anticipated in the snow. His snow suit was so puffy and the boots so awkward, I didn't think he'd be able to walk at all, but he tired, and did ok at times, but decided that sometimes it was easier to crawl. Everyone had fun for a while, but eventually Graham just got mad at the whole, not being able to move thing, so we went inside. So it was a fun afternoon. I guess it's only the end of January, and we have February and March still ahead of us, so we could get some more snow. Until then, this will have to hold us over.
