The weekend before Christmas it snowed at my parents house more than I can ever remember it snowing there. I believe they had about a foot of snow.... much more than the couple of inches we got when I was a kid. The next day I took the boys up to their house for some fun. This was Porter's first time really playing in the snow, he was just a baby when we went last time. Saying they had a good time would be a major understatement! I know they had to be freezing since we don't really have proper snow clothes, but they just wanted to play in it forever. All Ethan talked about the whole drive up was that he wanted to have a snowball fight like Buddy in "Elf". As soon as we got outside I was chased around the yard by these two boys.
My mom was attacked too, I love this action shot I captured.
It wouldn't have been so bad if the boys were throwing regular sized snowballs, but the snow would come up in these enormous chunks!
I wasn't at all surprised to find my little boy that will eat anything testing out the snow.
Here's Ethan making a snow angel...
We made a snow man, Porter was so proud!
The boys found this patch of ice and told me they were "ice skating". They would dance around on the ice until they slipped, and get up and do it again. Quite funny to watch, luckily they didn't get hurt.
When we finally convinced them to go inside Grandma gave them some cinnamon rolls and made them some hot chocolate to warm them up.
We all had a great time. Mom, thanks for making it such a special day for the boys!
