Family Snow Day!!


It's the first time since I think Spencer and I have been married that our little family has had a snow day together. Usually he gets stuck at school and I'm down in Ony. We enjoyed it very much. I just wish the snow had gotten here a little earlier so all the Christmas lights could still be up. There's not much prettier than snow covered Christmas lights.



It was quite strange for Onalaska, (at least I think it was) at how quickly our snow accumulated. In just a half an hour on Sunday we had a good few inches.

Isabell was VERY excited to go play in it. She wanted to make a snow man and put a hat on his head so Frosty could come to life. We told her we didn't have a magic hat, but she kept insisting. Spencer was more than willing to do most of the work. He loves the snow and even went back to play in it after his run once it was almost dark.



Iz again kept insisting on a hat, so Papa came up with this.

So with a little work from Spencer, he used it to make a hat for our snowman.

We think it kinda looks like a train engineer hat. This is also Isabell dancing with the lucky Snowman while singing, "Frosty the Snowman".

After a while Ellie just liked eating it.



So I don't know if you've ever heard of the website called Pinterest. Tressa introduced me to it, and I LOVE it! It has everything under the sun. Random pictures, and mostly what I use it for, is ideas; Ideas from crafting, to parenting help, to hair ideas, workout, food, date nights, picture taking, and so much more. Well, I've seen a couple of pictures of things done in the snow and said,"I've got to try it." And for once in my life... I DID!!! And here are the pictures to prove it.

It's an upside down snowman. :)



And what I like to call, "A Car's car". From the Pixar Disney movie, Cars




And this is Ellie in her snow get-up. It was adorable watching her trudging through the snow.
