Snow Days - the good stuff

It was beautiful! Troy liked playing in the snow, Kaylee, not so much. Tuesday afternoon, we went out in it immediately, and probably stayed out about 45 minutes before the kids got too cold. We tried to make a snowman, but it would not pack at all. We walked around in it, ran in it and just played in it. I took them out again right before dark to play in it.

The next morning, we went back out in and our neighbors were out, so we walked to their house. Troy had fun riding down their little hill and Kaylee had fun on their swing.

When Brian got home, we went out again and tried to get them to slide in a pool float. That didn't work very well, so I pulled them in a laundry basket. They thought that was fun until Brian started pulling the basket and went too fast and dumped them both out. Kaylee wouldn't have anything to do with the basket or snow after that. She was done.

This is the crash that made Troy and Kaylee not trust Brian anymore.

The third morning before Brian went to work, we took the kids out one more time. For a little bit, Kaylee refused to come outside. We went to the top of our yard, and I went down the "hill" a couple of times, and Troy went down once.

and then we had to say goodbye to the snow.
