SnOw DaY!!!

Today we woke up to this:
That's EIGHT inches of snow, and it was/is still coming down hard! I think we were up to almost 10in when Tory last checked. Crazy.

We bundled the kiddo up in lot and lots of layers to go out and enjoy the white stuff. He wanted to wear his daddy's boots...

The first thing he did when we set him down outside was face plant himself into the snow. Ugh! I really thought that would be it- that he'd decide this stuff was not cool and insist on coming back inside. But he was a trooper. He wanted to be held for a while at first.
 
 

But soon he was happy to sit down and play!
(Standing was not an option- that's how he face planted. I think 8-10in of snow is a bit too deep for him)
 

I showed him just one time how to throw it around...

...and he caught on! Once he figured that out, it was giggles and throwing and giggles and throwing. ♥

Dexter was definitely having fun too. He gets SO rambunctious when it snows, and this is by far the most he's ever seen in his life. He was running right by us, which of course, made Tyler laugh hysterically!

Running running running.

We didn't stay out too long, because we couldn't keep Tyler's boots on. :/ He was up early today so he was tired anyway. We'll try again later I'm sure... this snow is supposed to stick around for a looong time!

So cute! Colin loves the snow too. He leaves his boots alone (probably because he could never get them off...it takes a team of people to get the darn things on!) but insists on taking off his mittens. Love the dex picks!
