Snow Day

There was excitement at this household as the snowflakes started falling last night.  Okay, so maybe the older kids were excited because they were hoping school would get canceled!!  Nice try, it didn't happen!  Eden and Bella were already plotting what they were going to do in the snow.   We were in Ethiopia when the last snow storm hit and we really haven't had much winter weather, so I have to admit I welcomed it!!  (Not like there was much I could do about it anyway!!)  Without being prompted, we found Bereket staring out window of our back door, watching the snowflakes fall in the porch light.  He was mesmerized!!  

This morning when I woke the littles I told them that we had snow on the ground!!!  We did get a good breakfast in their tummies and then shortly after we had to pull out the snow clothes!!  Needless to say, the older kids were not so excited about the snow and going to school, although Cyrus was still hoping that the snow would continue to fall and that school would get out early (like at 12 noon!!)!!  After all, his bus run is the longest one, so they would for sure be the first to be let out!!!!

Last night, looking out the window.

Mom picks Bereket up so he can see the snow
flakes better.

This is looking out our kitchen window.  BEAUTIFUL winter wonderland!!

Looking out our back porch!!

Eden gets right down to business - building a snowman~

Not sure of this stuff called snow (& how to move around so bundled up)!

"Oh, this is fun!!"



Still not too sure about the snow.

VERY busy!

Bella's more in the business of EATING the snow, instead of building a snowman!

"Yep, Mom, I'm still stuffed in this big coat & pants!

Beautiful smiles from my Bella girl!

Bereket's catching on to the fun now!!

That is, until he gets cold and has to come in the house with
 Mom.  It's still pretty
 fun to watch the girls out the window!

funny sight to see the daffodils coming up with snow
 around them!

Mesmerized!

Even though the pict. is out of focus on Eden's hair you
 can see Bereket eating in the back!

This hair do went in today.  I am definitely getting
quicker thank goodness!

Sweet girl!
