Snow Day!!!

Building a snowman turned into a snowball fight instead. Emma got her brother good with this shot!
We somehow convinced the pup to brave the elements with us for a few minutes. He whined the entire time, but obviously needed to go out.
Under the snow is a nice layer of ice and Emma found that fact out after she slipped and landed on her bum.
Emma didn't mind the frigid temperature and wind. She was just happy to go outside and play in the snow.
Wow, you can really see his yellow and brown healing nose in this shot! He was being a typical Henry boy and licking the snow. Thankfully he only licked the clean, non-touched spots.
Going down for another bite of snow:)
Emma did some skating around the backyard, giggling the whole way and waving her arms.
He has been itching to go outside in the snow and play since about 6:30 this morning.
We're so mean that we made them wait until about 2 pm this afternoon to go out and it was a short playtime.
Dusting off her gloved hands from making a snowball.
Watching their footprints appear in the frozen tundra that is our backyard.

Winter weather has hit us again and the kids don't have school today. We'll be making a snowman later and I'll post pictures then.

Daddy attempted to show them the proper way to make a snowman, but their attention span was way too short. They resorted to a snowball fight instead and skating around the backyard.
