snow day..

as i was slumbering away on saturday morning i heard what i thought was a lawn mower drive past my window, i thought that my mother in law must be running the lawn mower over the grass to get up the last of the leaves before a snow storm hit..... so in groggy frustration (who would be up at 9:00am on a saturday) i looked out my window, and to my surprise...... it was a snow blower.

que the angels......SNOW!!!! FINALLY! 

{for all you people cursing the white fluffy flecks from heaven, why do you live here?}

do they come any cuter then this?!

 

my mom and dad had to stop bye to make sure i was building the snow fort "igloo" correctly

my dad after all taught me everything i know about how to build a proper snow fort. 

this is the first of many i have built solo (arron helped, but i mean without my dads help) .    , and it was just a small one person dwelling,

but when i was little we would build igloos big enough for my family of 5 to fit in. 

we attempted to sleep in one of our snowy homes once, but if memory serves we wussed out and ended up fleeing to the comfort and warmth of our beds that were a mere 10 feet away. 

Once grandpa showed up and approved the construction on the igloo, 

he busied himself making a huge snowman,

gabe was a little scared at first, until he realized he could eat the oreo facial features. 

try to look past the elmo jammies that arron is wearing.

 my mom so kindly got arron and gabe matching PJ's for Christmas. 

{notice the missing oreo in the snow mans smile}

gabe was tired by the end of our snowy adventure and ready for a nap.

but when mom was not done playing......

he took matters into his own hands. 

hahahaha

So again i ask, what is there not to LOVE about the snow?!
