Snow Weekend

This weekend we received our first big snow of the year. I find it ironic that we got significant amounts of snow two winters in a row. That's really uncommon here in eastern NC!

Here is Owen last year in the snow. It crazy to see how much he has grown in a year's time.

Last year since he was only 4 months old, he really couldn't do anything in the snow. We were excited that he would be more aware of what was going on this time. That was wishful thinking! At first he was happy to be outside..
He even gave me kisses, thanking me for bring him out.
Daddy took him for a walk down the street.
But then Daddy tried to make him walk..
He didn't really like that..
So he sat down and pouted.
But who can resist that face..
So while there weren't any exciting snow adventures, we enjoyed the beauty of God's creation. I was commenting to Jeremy today that it amazes me how something as small as precipitation can make people happy. We enjoyed all the time as a family but did get a little stir crazy. Both of our schools were called off tomorrow, so we'll have one more day together.
