Snow Day

We had our first snow of the season yesterday. It was just a light dusting, really, but it brought a lot of joy to the little guys in my house. I wasn't expecting it to happen, even though they were calling for it. Mostly because it had been in the low 60's the day before, and we were outside in t-shirts and light jackets enjoying the warmth and sunshine. Crazy weather.

It started to fall just as Grayson was waking up from his nap. Scott took him to the big window in our living room, and the look on his little face was priceless. He lit up, with a big smile, and before long he was jumping around the house in excitement, declaring that it was Christmas :) Jackson joined in on the fun, and we had two boys who were very anxious to go out and play in the snow. 

They mostly just brushed snow off of any surface they could find, and tried to eat it (of course). After playing for a while they came in and bundled up under a blanket on the sofa and ate chocolate chip cookies (before dinner, I might add) and talked about what they wanted for Christmas. Obviously in their minds, snow = Christmas. It was pretty much the perfect afternoon.
