Lots of Snow in Good Old Indiana!

Jay working hard shoveling away the 14 inches of snow! Way to go honey!


All bundled up and ready to go outside!


Loving the snow and playing in it!

Walking on Snow


Jay sledding down the hill in our backyard and almost into the pond!


"I stuck" is what she kept saying everytime she fell over and couldn't get up!

Face Plant!


Molly really loves the snow too, but was ready to come inside!


Well, the snow finally arrived this winter!! Indiana was due for some good snow and it finally made its way here! Today, there was no school of course, so Adalyn and I got to hang out and play! Jay, however, did have to go into work, so no playing out in the snow until after nap time! Once Jay got home he shoveled the driveway, or should I say plowed the driveway, or should I say with the help of our neighbors they all shoveled and plowed the driveway! After that chore was complete, it was time to bundle Adalyn up and take her out for her FIRST "playing in the snow" experience!! When we got a little snow back in December she had her cast on and wasn't able to play and then this past little bit we got, well it was just WAY to cold for her to play in, so we were super excited to get her out there today. I was so worried about her getting cold, so I bundled her up EXTRA good-my mom would be proud!! She had on 3 layers, a coat, 2 sets of gloves, 3 pairs of socks, her hat, hood, Mommy's scarf, and but of course... Her Kitty RAIN Boots!! I thought I had a pair of hand-me-down snow boots but I didn't, so the rain boots worked out great!! After she was all bundled up she kind of reminded me of the kid brother on the movie, "Christms Story" that couldn't put his arms down, but the girl version?! What do you think?! Anyways, Jay had fun pulling her on the sled, which only lasted for about 5 minutes and then she wanted to dive into the snow herself. Her and Daddy made a snow angel together and she giggled the entire time! She kept saying how much she liked the snow and how much fun it was! We decided to go around to the front of the house where she could stand up on the cleared driveway. As we were standing there talking to some neighbors she decided to go head first into the mound of snow the Jay piled up! Serious Face Plant! Once she did that, all the fun and games were over! She wanted to go inside because she was "cold." Well, it was a lot of fun while it lasted! I love the snow!
