A winter wonderland right outside our window. Hannah has been talking about snow for weeks now and was completely amazed that it actually arrived. Her exact words as she looked outside were "wow" pause "Wow" another pause "Wow!" and by the third "wow" she was jumping up and down in total excitement. She ran to the door in her pajamas with her shoes in hand ready to go outside and play. Once we talked her into changing clothes and putting on a coat, mittens, and hat we headed outside to play in the snow. It was absolutely freezing but Hannah had a great time collecting snow in her bucket to make "sand castles" and Lily was able to touch the cold, white snow for the first time ever. Hannah finally agreed to go inside to thaw out for some blueberry pancakes and hot cocoa. After breakfast it was straight back outside for Hannah and time to make a little snowman before the snow melted away.
The snow disappeared as quickly as it came but we were so thankful for such a fun start to a cold December morning.
Well, I'm very sorry I missed this snow experience. I had so much with the last one. I'm glad Hannah's wish finally came true. Hopefully, it will snow again next year so Lily can have some fun.
