Snowball fight round two.

We finally got some snow again, not a whole lot but enough for the kids to get excited about it. All of us got our coats on and went out and started up a massive snowball fight, our neighbor kids also joined in. Even when their little toes were frozen, their cheeks were bright red, their fingers would hardly move anymore and their clothes were soaking wet they still begged to stay outside to take in as much of the snow as they could. I love watching them get so excited to just be out playing together. When they came inside and took off all of their wet clothes in the kitchen and set them on the washer it made me think back to doing that same thing growing up; we'd come in from playing and take all of our wet clothes off and set them on the dryer while mom handed us a towel to dry off with and made us hot cocoa while running us warm baths. I want to be that kind of Mother to my kids.


   
Can you tell their COLD?!

Kissing when you can't feel your face proved to be difficult!

John Michael hits Connor with a snowball.
Connor can't hit him back and gets mad.
John Michael laughs.
Connor tackles John Michael in the snow.
Now Connor laughs.
